Upgrade Spec. Check

ssmacc · 31 May 2013 at 10:25

Hello All,

My sister is after a PC upgrade and I've spec’d her the following, it'll be used for web browsing and maybe picture editing / very light video editing.
She has all other bits required (including a new SSD) and already owns Windows 8 64.

If I go for the below is it best to get a third party cooler and if so which?

That looks really good.

Cooler wise, the Matterhorn pure or true spirit 120 would be my choice.

When you say she has everything else does that include a power supply?

Yep, she has a new 550w from here...can't remember the exact one but I usually buy after I’ve posted here so I’m guessing it’s a good one (for the budget)

Cheers

Thanks for the suggestions, do you know if either of these come with paste pre-applied?

They do.

Cheers, I've opted for the true spirit 120, based only on price! (its not my money after all!)
Going to buy now...(it's sad that I'm excited about buiding someone elses machine!)
