Hi iceeddie, here is my spec:

981c2qrig.jpg


Total Including VAT + Shipping = £981.72

I planned initially to go for an i7 spec - but that is not feasible with the budget and the extras required. In games the core 2 quad q6700 will perform very similarly to an i7 and the chip is a very good overclocker should you wish to go down that road (included a great cpu cooler too). The graphics card is one of the best out today and will handle modern games with ease.
 
BUDGET: £1150 inc vat

Processor: YES - I7 possible to go dual I7's?
Motherboard: YES
Memory: YES - 12gb
Hard Drive(s): YES - 2 * 1 TB Raid 0
Cooling: YES
Water Cooling: MAYBE - Looking to reach 4ghz 100% stable
Case: YES
Power Supply: YES


Uses:
Video editing HD content using adobe suite. Must be a stable as possible. Will be putting win 7 64bit.
 
rather than a new thread thought i would bump this one.

need a spec for a media pc with a budget of cheap as can get.

sole use will be video.

need everything.

thx
 
Hi guys need some help, want a machine good enough for now (StarCraft II, Crysis and Crysis II on full settings, or close as possible to full) and be futureproof in the sense that it's easily upgradable, I don't know how to overclock but am willing to learn in the future.

Iv also never built a PC so a case with built in cooling and whatever else that might come built in would be preferred. Thanks!!

Keyboard: NO
Mouse: NO
Headset: NO
Speakers: NO
Monitor(s): NO
Operating System: NO

Uses: Gaming want to be able to play crysis, crysis 2 and Starcraft 2 on full settings uni work etc
Overclocking: ain't got a clue

once again thanks for the hard work!!
 
Thanks for that, that was really helpful, I think the 5850 is perfect for me, now there's so many of that type of card, which one do I get? Budget on card £200-£250
 
I'm liking that card and price, now need to build my machine around it, iv had a look at the guide in the dudes sig, I guess I can probably get there (£700) but would I be able to upgrade later on, better card?, better processor? etc also I have no idea of what to go for between amd and intel can u give me a spec plz, Im not intel/amd fanboy, just want biggest bang for
my buck.

Thx u guys are awesome
