Hello everyone, I've been planing on getting myself a new computer to keep up with the game developers... My current system is a 5 year old DELL so there are no parts aivble to salvage so it has to be from scratch...
I'm mostly going to use the computer to play MMO-games like EVE Online and Ever Quest 2 to name a few... I will allso be taking breaks form the Onlineworld from time to time to play games such as Command and Conquer Generals and Oblivion... I dont think I currently need the best of the best and my knowledge in hardware is limited...
New build:
Now that you know the usage here is what I've thought of so far and would like suggestions on:
Case: Cooler Master Centurion 534 - 649 SEK ~ 92 USD
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz - 2850 SEK ~ 400 USD
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 - 1195 SEK ~ 168 USD
PSU: Seasonic M12 700W - 2198 SEK ~ 309 USD
RAM: Corsair Dominator TWIN2X6400C4D 2048MB - 2895 SEK ~ 407 USD
GFX Card: Sapphire Radeon X1950XTX 512MB - 3495 SEK ~ 491 USD
Hard Drive: Western Digital Raptor X 150GB - 2250 SEK ~ 316 USD
Optical: Sony DVD-burner AWG540A11 OEM 599 SEK ~ 85 USD
Adding up to a total of: 16,131 SEK ~ 2,268 USD...
What do you think of this build instead of the old one? My main question will it all fit together? I know i can cut the price a bit if i go with a cheaper RAM... And I can also cut it a bit by going for the non X Raptor harddrive... Suggestion and comments are welcome!
Thanks for reading!
