Give him a "stooping" ovation! Registered Member #853 Joined: Wed Mar 05 08, 03:18PMPosts: 520 | Looking over this thread, you people have some nice kit! Mine is pretty low-end, TBH: Processor: AMD Athlon Dual-Core 2.4GHz System Board: Gigabyte GA-M61PME-S2 Memory: 4 GB (2X2 GB) Crucial RAM Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 8400 512MB PCI-E Optical Drive(s) 1 X LG DVD Ram drive Dual Layer, 1 X DVD Writer with 7-in-1 USB readers for memory cards, camera cards, etc... PSU: 650 W Case: Custom Case with side Neon Fans It works, can play Source games, and cruise internets and make movies/burn DVDs It's about all I can afford/need "If i had a £1 for EVERY disc in the base of my spine that has crumbled, I could probably buy that Large Moccachino I always wanted!"  | ||

  Registered Member #1883 Joined: Thu Apr 16 09, 01:11PMYour Location: Scotland Posts: 31 | Nice case! Nice processor, that i7 should mean you won't need to upgrade your CPU for a while. You can probably clock it around 3.8 GHz with that cooler too. One word of advise though: make sure you buy a quality power supply. 700W is enough for that rig, but 700W from a dodgy manufacturer won't cut it. What is the make & model of the PSU?

Mooooo  Registered Member #1842 Joined: Sat Apr 04 09, 01:30AMPosts: 257 | 4.5 out of 5 mate, if the PSU is indeed of a quality brand like Hamish says. A 5 would be with a top end GPU, rest is already there =P Oh and minor nitpick, it's 6 GB of RAM, not GHz =P On another note, that is one mother of a case...The hell do you need a case that big for? =P You only have 2 HDD's!

The case has very good airflow so will be better suited to cooling the i7 he's bought which would run toasty in an enclosed space. The only gripe ive got with him is buying the Triton heatsink. :facepalm: | ||
