Hey, over the last couple of weeks i have been searching the net trying to learn as much as i can about computers because i want to make one now i have made a list of the gear i think will make a good gaming pc and just need any final thought,advice or critisism.. really any input would help me alot well here is the list: P.S. im hoping this pc will last me through the crysis stage maxed and hopefully through most the dx10 era if at all possible... also is there a big difference between the E6600 C2D and the Quad Q6600? thanks HEAPS for any input ^_^
for the harddrive i woundnt suggest tht biginsted buy a raptor 250 gig with 7200 RPM and get an also 80 external hard drive
the raptor in 250gb is $460! lol thats way out of my budget ..will the hard drive have much effect on the quality or speed of my gaming? p.s. the raptor runs at 10,000rpm
keep the quad, if your trying to save, you can because 700 for a gfx card is too much, you can get a great one for 500 that will get you thru the crysis stage max, and everything else looks good and should work. and the mobo, also a bit too much but hey, if you want to have the best hardware go for it my opinion
hey thanks for the feedback.. however these are all Australian prices and their the best i can find even the place i first found REALLY cheap is more expenssive than this place.. do u know anywhere cheaper that i could look? so apart from the prices does it all look good?? im REALLY paranoid im going to buy it all and a few months down the track findout its not up to skratch
i think thats fine for gaming, my comp is good for gaming and im running nvidia 7 series ^^ (the 8's came out like 3 months later i should've waited >< bust still) and im not sure if its your first time building or what but if so, GL and dont screw the motherboard directly to the case! (causes a BIG short circuit, kills more or less everyting xD) if your looking for good deals always check newegg, i got all my parts there [warning not meant as an advertisement but kind is sorry ><]
I don't see any cooling things. You'll probably want liquid cooling if you're going for the best stuff aorund.
liquid is not for beginners and is pretty expensive for what you get. highend air can get you close to low-midrange liquid but at 1/3-1/4th the cost.
haha thanks for all your replies but the prices are all in AUSTRALIAN dollers not in american dollers...and thats the cheapest i can find them anywhere at the moment.. i cant use newegg because its only for USA.. but thanks for your help i will get liquid cooling if i have the money left but i need to buy games a desk, chair hopefully photoshop,vista and all that type of stuff yet so i will see how i go Merged Post: its all aussie doller whats wrong with that psu? is it not powerful enough or somthing??
