Thanks For Posting, I'm Sorry I Can't Be Of More Help.

However, It May Be Easier For People To Read If You didn't use capitals at the start of every word. See?

I'd switch the 620W Corsair down to the 520W as it's all you'll need for that system setup even with an overclock. Then I'd put the extra cash on top of the 8800 GTS OC2 640MB and get the OcUK 8800 GTX. So basically £30 quid off the psu down to the 520w, then £30 quid onto the OC2 to get the GTX.

Just a bit :P
 
Your paying nearlly £200 for a motherboard that will do exactly the same job as a £130 motherboard. The Blitz boards are way overpriced.

Change it to the Abit p35 Pro.

You dont really need the 8800 OC2 version just get the standard version and clock it up.

The Memory is a bit of a overkill, something like this will be plenty:

Last thing, do you really need Vista Ultimate?

Then with all the money you have saved you can easily swap the GTS for a GTX.
 
thanks for all the replys guys keep the idears coming please a do think think the memory a bit high like £ 300 like but i am going overclock it and a will be use vist 64 bit
so need 4 gig
 
That's overkill for 15" 1024x768!

Do this, and buy a 22" with the money saved, I think you'll have saved enough.

To be honest you could get MUCH cheaper memory such as the geil pc 6400 stuff which atm is at 60 quid for 2 gig and that would overclock fantastically (i'd know, I have 2 gig of it and I'm at 3.4ghz with my e6600).

Then use the extra money to get a bigger monitor. It's sacrilege having a monitor that size and an 8800 :eek:

edit: DAMMIT! beaten again.
 
thank guys what monitor should a get dont no nothing about monitor and res size ??

somthing to play games on watch movies stuff like that and the pic to be bit sharp
 
Aha! Thanks for a budget, lemme respec.

Actually wait, the one I posted above seems about fine, just ad the 226BW. Could improve it a little if you are willing to drop to a cheaper keyboard/mouse and Vista down from ultimate to home premium..
 
Just warranty, and some goodies aka BFG t shirt. The BFG is also clocked a bit higher but its so easy you can do it yourself.
