Re: soon to be new build
all looks good to me except the power supply
look at the corsair 650-tx those combo's have a pretty price ......... but she loses her shine once that power supply is in the trash ...................:)

Re: soon to be new build
I would run this memory instead ............... never run 4 sticks of memory when you can avoid it

Re: soon to be new build
Ok, everything seems DECENT but you can do way better. Seeing how you are doing movies and dvd's etc in a few years you wish you would have bought a blu ray burner, so think about that. You should really upgrade the CPU and a bigger HD maybe an extra $100 total. Also I didn't see a PSU (unless I am blind). Also add 4 gigs of RAM and the RAM you choose is meant for overclocking if don't plan on OC'ing then maybe change it but it doesn't matter really
Better CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115037 Bigger HD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822152100 Blue Ray: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827136155 More RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820148150 or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227364 Either one, both good get the 2nd one if you want to OC the 1st if you don't Those videos will take up about a gig a piece and a game is a gig+. It adds up. If you don't have a PSU chosen, I suggest this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139005 Those will suit you alot better Last edited by connor-53; 03-27-2009 at 09:07 PM. |

Re: soon to be new build
Case and power supply combos are not the way to go, buy a case without a power supply and then a quality supply to fit your needs.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119068 Both of these are 80% plus certed and Quiet http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139005 The midrange ATI Video cards are better then the Nvidia cards in my opinion http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814125244 For what you want to use the PC for use the DDR2 800 speed Ram it will server you fine with no hassles. the E7400 is a good CPU the E8400 is better for gaming if the budget allows. |
