Anyone think that this can be easily beaten ? Is it a reasonable quote ?

ps: This ain't for me :( I am a skink student without a penny... to be exact I owe lots !
 
u get a nice Englight Case with a 300 psu for 50 from OCUK

U can pickup the same maxtor hdd but 40 gig for 60 quid from dabs now Lol why u need 60 ?
 
nah toss the crappy abit board away and get an epox 8kha+ they rock... go t my own friday and its rock solid

and if you got only one hd you dont need that raid crap anyway
 
2 hds it will be

it for me actually, i have about a grand but im not spending it till june

this was just to see wot id get atm

and we've been told this Abit board is the best, u gimp nasti :D hehe
 
Inwin cases are good, very solid and bits don't fly off it when you try and take it apart. I think the price for the HD is quite reasonable - don't fuck about with dabs, you know what they're like.

And if your not getting it until June - you can probably knock 200-300 quid off the price of the whole lot - I reckon. RAM seems to be on its way backup - so maybe thats worth getting now?
 
well if you want/need RAID i'd wait until epox launches their 8kha2/3 series of mobos in the near future...

abit's are quite common sigh in the return to manufacturer compartment:P

what comes to power sources, i'd suggest antec, they deliver truly suberb performance

Thx martz, and natsi u get paid by epox or sommet fs! thx for the input though

wot i actually meant b4 is that i have about a grand (just) and i really want to get the best stuff i can for it, so i dont mind spending it all, just no more :)
