im about ready to build my new computer now...or at least start waiting for all the parts hehe.
just wanted to know peoples thoughts on it. its mainly for gaming but its also for genral use and uni (software development tools such as vsC++ / eclipse etc...)
the goal is to spend enough to not need to upgrade again for quite some time, looking at around the 1500 mark (give or take depending on necesity)
i'v already read countless "spec me" threads and would like any constructive advice. iv reasently decided not to go for SSD's as too many people tell me "wait a year or two and the tech will be much better"
heres the build thus far:
will also be getting:
corsair HX750W PSU
Antex 1200 case
150GB WD VelociRaptor
Total = £371.01
OcUk said they would swap out the cooler in the bundle for THIS hence the two scythe fans.
raptor will be for OS, Games and development tools, while the 1TB HDD will be for everything else.
also have on question, does the ASUS 5850 have voltage tweek tech like the 5870 and 4890? i'v read all over that they do but it isnt stated on the site (like those others).
cheres.
