Upgrade time....

Davinnicus · 9 Jul 2010 at 15:14

So after a couple of years I've started to get itchy for an upgrade again, and have been looking at the following;

Will be keeping my 5850 and my drives.

Moving up from an old Abit IP35-e board with an Intel 8400.

Any comments or other advice welcomed..

Maybe go for these ram. Mine are brilliant

But all looks good!

'tis pretty good, although most people seem to suggest that the high end air coolers do a better job on i7s than the H50 does.

OCZ RAM has seen a large number of failures recently as they are apparently not factory checked. Best off with the Corsair!

That board is a steal at that price even if it has gone up by a tenner this week!

Also consider the Noctua as a serious cooler. Better cooling at the same price point although at the cost of weight and noise increase compared to the H50.
