Would get one of the Asus 5850s personally, can't argue with a 3 year warranty

You could trade up to the Samsung F1 750GB, 1.5x the capacity for not much more in price. But that 5 year warranty on the WD is tough to beat

Will you also be wanting an optical drive with that?

I would honestly just get the cheapest DVD drive that matches your case colour

sata2 jobby

samsung or LG both 14.99

Thermal paste?? another few quid if u need it - not sure how that bundle comes

For the PSU, you should get the Antec TruePower Modular PSU 650W instead of the 550W, so that it will have enough juice if adding another 5850 to Crossfire.

Unfortunately the Antec TruePower Modular PSU 650W is currently out of stock on OcUK, so you'd either have to buy it elsewhere, or buy the more expensive 750W.

For the Antec TruePower Modular PSU 650W, you can get it for £81.98 with free delivery (choose from delivery options at check-out) from the store that got over 40,000 ratings (I can't name the store since it is against forum rules to mention competitors' name directly). Just put 'Antec TruePower 650' on the google shopping search.

We can't even post google search results? Damn.
It's kinda annoying when things are out of stock on OcUK. Running out of stock on 5850 I can understand since they are hard to come by, but out of stock on a popular PSU with no ETA...it is basically sending customers away to buy at other places...

Might I suggest just getting a retail copy of windows so you don't get any hassle should you need to change motherboards, etc.

 

[simmo.3]

ok guys, i think i got it all now....???
will it all fit and run? will the psu power it with no probs? im staying with the 550w psu as i aint going to buy him 2 ati cards.i dont love him that much. LOL LOL
