HI all
I intend to build this PC
I just want to know if this will cater to my needs, I intend to watch HD films, Program, plus all the usual like internet and email.
Possibly some gaming (I know i'd have to buy a graphics card)
I've chosen these parts as I want to make it into a hackintosh at a later date.
Intel Core i3-3225 3.3GHz Dual-Core Processor - £100
Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3P Micro ATX LGA1155 Motherboard - £60
PNY XLR8 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory - £40
Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk - £60
Fractal Design Core 1000 USB 3.0 MicroATX Mid Tower Case - £35
Corsair CX 430W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V Power Supply - £40
Hannspree HE225DPB 21.5" 1080p Monitor - £90
Total price comes to £425
Are there any improvements that i can make while keeping the price to a BARE minimum?
Maybe even swap some components to lower the price a little more?
I'm not really fussed about a modular psu.
All opinions will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
