Hi Guys,

on the brink of buying my new pc, can you check this spec and tell me if it's decent :) or anything i should consider changing.


Samsung 160GB S300 7200RPM 8MB
Corsair Memory TWIN2X2048-6400 2x1GB 240-Pin DIMM XMS2-6400 CL5
XFX GeForce 7900GS 256MB DDR3 PCIE Dual DVI 450/1.32
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 Socket 775 2.13GHz
Shuttle SB83G5M Socket 775 Intel 915G PCI-E ATX
BenQ 19" Benq FP91G+ 8ms TFT
LiteOn 16X DVD+/-RW/RAM DL IDE Black Bare Drive


This will set me back roughly about £850 so any suggestions would be welcomed :)
 
The only thing i question is whether the card will fit.
I have No experience with shuttles at all but the 7900GS is HUGE.
 
bleh :< back to the drawing board, i'm playing around with an amd setup atm. But it looks like intel is better value for money
 
Well, i've ditched the shuttle idea since i don't go to LANs anymore :). This is what i've ordered.

Antec 500W PSU
Thermaltake Soprano SECC Silver, Window
BenQ 19" Benq FP91G+ 8ms TFT
Samsung SpinPoint P80 250GB UDMA133
MSI AM2 nForce 570 ATX Audio Dual GB Lan Raid Passive
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 Socket AM2 2.2GHz 1MB 1000FSB
Corsair Memory TWIN2X2048-6400 2x1GB 240-Pin DIMM XMS2-6400 CL5
XFX GeForce 7900GS 256MB DDR3 PCIE Dual DVI 450/1.32

All for £790, i'm rather happy :D
 
I have no intentions of overclocking, i use cpu intensive programs. after effects, cad and adobe premiere and I'm pretty sure this can cope with them all, play css and FEAR. Also i changed the graphics card at the very last minute to an X1950XT
