**question removed** - solved, I hope..

Now that the MSI GX660R is back down below @ £958.80, I think it's time to use that overdraft facility. :)

Apologies for another one of these threads. Last year I was with Be (LLU) until I left the UK for an 8 month overseas assignment. I was pretty much getting a good 2Mb/s line. Upon my return I switched to O2 as it's the same connection and it makes sense due to the discount given for their...

Same here. DPD Tracking states: Awaiting receipt of parcel. Pity, because the weather in my region has been fine over the last 3 days, so I was hoping for better luck. Worse luck, I won't be at home tomorrow..:(

Cheers. Ended up ordering the XFX. :)

I'm think of upgrading from a 4870. The XFX 5870 is only a bit more at £187.99. Price aside XFX would be the better card, right?

Can someone please kindly post an image of the Intel 5300 Wireless card I should be getting along with the full name? I'm seeing different types of 5300 card and different images, it's getting confusing.. I'm I looking for Intel WiFi Link 5300 half size mini PCI-E wireless card? **EDIT**...

Yes, I would love to know too. I don't know much about overclocking. What max temps are we looking for?

I just ordered one today. I plan to run XP Professional and OC to 2Ghz, if possible. I now need to order 2GB Memory. I read 2GB 1333Mhz DDR3 is the best option, but I'm not sure which brand to get? Can someone who has good success oc'ing this please recommend some RAM? Which exact brand/type...

Sales did say I could send it back at my cost and they would ship out the 550 BE FOC, which is great, but I'm building the PC for my friend and need it completed by the end of the weekend. I'm back in employment from Monday and unfortunately won't have time after.

Ordered a build very early today (2am!) which included the AMD Phenom II X2 Dual Core 545 3.00GHz and Win 7 64 OEM (at yesterdays prices). Sales were very good and nice enough to refund the difference on the OS, but I would have got the 550 BE if I had known, but it's already packed/marked as...

He's agreed to go with the build in post #6, but with the HD4870 1GB. Thanks again.

Thanks, I have the HD4870 1GB myself. How does it compare to the HD 5770?

Thanks CAT-THE-FIFTH. Very good. I didn't think to mention that he will most likely want to add a couple of 1TB HDD's in the future and also would need a system that can smoothly play x264/1080p encoded video. For this reason the BenQ 21.5" may be better as it's higher res than the viewsonic...

Thanks a lot eddyc, £650 including monitor. BTW - you've included the upgrade version of Win 7. No, he definately won't be overclocking.

My friend is asking me to put together a new build for him and has set a budget of £650, all in. He will need a case, a monitor (preferably a 22", perhaps the BenQ G2222HDL 21.5" @ £145) + Win 7 64 bit, but doesn't require a keyboard or mouse. He will use it for general web browsing and...

The last time I remounted the cooler I applied the paste in a vertical line with a space at top and bottom. I'll leave a message for you in the customer support forum. Thank you. I'm sure the bundle arrived with vcore set at 1.32500. However, the OCUK profile is saved at 1.3000v. I...

I ws told by support that temps below 80C are desirable, but they wouldn't want to see them rise above 85C. At the moment I'm seeing 88-91C in a fairly cold room. 50 minutes on hold to systems support. No answer. This is not usual, but it's now gone 5.30, so I hung up.

I think some of you are under the impression i'm on water/using a Corsair H50 Cooler. I'm not. Here is the bundle I'm using: *OVERCLOCKED* Intel Core i7 930 2.80GHz @ 4.00GHz / Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R Motherboard / Corsair XMS3 6GB (3x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 (1600MHz) Tri-Channel DDR3 Prolimatech...

Hi Aedus, I see what you mean. In the link you posted the label on the fan is facing towards the I/O Panel. I was wondering that myself. However, the arrows on the fans are pointing towards the rear of the case and I can also feel warn air exiting. I had some doubts, but I feel it's correctly...
