I have seen this, (was going for 9800GTX+ at £115), but it seems like such a good deal, was wondering whether to go for it, (I know les performance, but it will mean I will spend less now, and so, be able to spend more on the rest of the system, or spend more on an upgrade, or upgrade sooner....
(rest of the system, : Biostar i45, e8400 (maybe, not sure, might go for the e7300, or the e5200, what kinda clocks would I get with each?, possibly the TRUE black, (if I get the card, or a cheaper cpu, will be able to afford it, 4gb crucial ballistix, 500 samsung F1, nothing else really.....


Thanks

What do you use the computer for and also, what is your screen res?

[GeorgeStorm]

Well, it will be used for everything, I will game on it, its a 22inch screen, (well, it will be), I will be overclocking, (for fun mainly)
I wont be doing any heavy rendering or anything like that, the hardest workout its going to get will be some video converting, although, not a great deal.....
My overall budget is around £600, (no OS, mouse, keyboard, case)
So, 22inch screen, £95 (on offer)
Biostar i45, £110
Samsung Spinpoint F1 500gb, £45
Optical drive, £15
cpu, either, 65, 95, or 135 (e5200, e7300, and e8400 respectively)
TRUE black, £40 (including yate loon high speed), (if I go for the cheaper gpu/cpu) otherwise maybe xigmatek s1283
Corsair HX520, £80, or save a little and get the Coolermaster Real Power M 620, £66?
And then either the 9800GTX+ at £115, or the 9800GT at £70

Any suggestions for changes are welcome

Thanks for all your help........

I say get the 9800GTX+ they are very good at the price range.

[GeorgeStorm]

Hmm, ok,
well then, which of the processors should I go for?
And what knindof clocks would I be able to get with each, (both max freq and 24/7)

Thanks............

This is the price list I have come up with:

120mm Zalman ZM-F3 Case fan £4.47
Thermalright IFX-14 120/140mm heat sink for AMD/Intel CPU with HR-10 backside cooler (No Fan) £40.24
Samsung SH-S223Q/BEBN 22x DVD±R, 8x DVD±DL, DVD+RW x8/-RW x6, x12 RAM SATA L/scribe Black OEM +Nero £17.93
Biostar TPower I45, iP45, S 775, PCI-E 2.0(x16), DDR2 1066/1200(OC)/667/800, SATA II, SATA RAID, ATX £109.03
nVidia GeForce 9800GTX+ 512MB PCI-E £114.99
22" Arianet Widescreen LCD Monitor With DVI - Piano Black £91.94
1TB Samsung Spinpoint F1 SATA2 7200RPM 32MB cache £66.64
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz (Retail 775) £126.44
Corsair 550W VX Series PSU £66.99

But its a little over , (add around £10 for postage), as it comes to, around £640

I mean, I could easily go for the 500gb Samsung, (save £20)
Any other suggestions for changes to save money? (go for the e7300?)

Thanks

[GeorgeStorm]

I have changed due to trying to reduce the price, its now:
Zalman F3 £4.47
Thermalright 120 Ultra, (not the extreme) £29.89
LG GH22NS30 £12.64
22" Digimate-DGM L-2248WD Piano Black £90.97
e7300 £89.69 (£35 less than the e8400)
620W Coolermaster Real Power M620 Modular PSU £60.95
Biostar TPower i45 £109.03
9800GTX+ £115
640gb WD (320gb platter version) £44.47
SHipping £7.95

Total: around £565

What do you guys think?
Any changes I should make?

Thanks

[GeorgeStorm]

I now have the option of getting a 8800GTS 512 for £95, and getting an e7200 for £75, should I go for either?

Thanks
