Well I'm about to buy a new comp in 2 weeks, most likely at the end of the month on wedneysday/thursday so I get my stuff at the weekend which I can use to build everything nicely up.
I'm still thinking about what to buy, I hope you can help me.
Long speech short sense this is what I am looking for:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 for 137€ or Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 for 240€
(both Boxed as I have an Artic Cooling Cooler and I want to see the differences) prefering the quadcore
GPU: Well I think I should get the ATi 4850 for ~130€ or the 4870 for 200€
by the time, i would prefer the 4850 atm due to its lower price.
RAM: DDR2-800 4gb for 70€
I dont care if i can only use 3.x gb of it cos I will use vista sooner or later anyway
Mobo: ok here it goes, I have no clue which one to buy, tbh I only need one to run everything, I dont really care about OC so it should be a cheap (maybe about 100€) on which can run everything.
HDD:WD Caviar 640GB for 68€
PSU: I've heard the Dark Power Pro from be quiet! are quite nice, but they are also expensive, maybe there is any other cheaper one? Should be 500W I think and less than 80€
what I got: Soundcard Creative X-Fi Extreme Gamer, mouse, keyboard, 19" tft, Case, CPU cooler and 2 case coolers. Anything else I need? All in all I set myself a limit to max 750€ for quite agood gaming PC which should be enough for 1280x960 for the next 2years
