MARSHY needs a computor

[Calneon]

Ok, first thoughts while at school (quick):

- 8GB RAM is not needed, stick with 4 and use the money to get faster memory.
- Get a bigger HDD, 250GB is a very poor ammount for a high spec PC like that, make it 500GB+
- You can get x20 or x22 speed DVD drives, obviously better than x16. Also, is it DVD-RW? Might as well get one of them.
- 450W CPU is cutting it very very fine and leaves NO room for updates in the future. I'm surprised they are supplying a PSU like that unless it's high quality like Corsair.
- I'd worry if a 19" monitor only cost £95. I'd much rather save up for a decent 22 " or 24".
- GTX260 is a good card and so is the E8400 CPU, so no problems there.

Umm it's only my 16th birthday so i know im not getting much and i cannot really add much else :S :eek:

[Colonel Mitch]

How much are you paying for the E8400?

[Colonel Mitch]

Ive just notied thats a build thing from a online ordering system isn't it.

I can guarantee you we can beat that price and we still include a 1 year warranty and after that free manufacturers warranty assistance.

The ram is epic 1337, the HDD will be fine, maybe put it to 350.. the cpu is corsair, the options are like: Corsair XMS2 or Corsair Dominator series, so yeah they will be good quality. Do you think I should cut some of the other stuff down and get like a GTX280?
