help with new system

[elkoger]

Hello Fine people

This is my first post here.
The reason why I post this is that im going 2 get a completely new system.


Short info: The Conroe is going 2 be clocked on a later time, and then i will buy a better cooler. And the reason for the same harddrives are because i want them 2 run in RAID.

The questions is:

1. Do you have any advice about changing hardware. fx. how can i get more performance, and so on?

2. Do the parts fit together?

3. Whats the - and + about the system?

I hope u will help me - Thx in advance

need help plz

not sure on the langauge at the DK looks eastern Europian, no matter.

Drop the RAmcooling, no way is it needed, you have awesome heat spreaders on the RAM.
Think about a DATA drive, Something in the 300-500GB range, for backup the raid and saving media files.
The rest of the build looks super, and as long as you are aware of the cpu cooler, should be fine. One advantage of buying a good cooler to start is they are easier to install than the stock one INtel gives you.

yeah the links are danish but the hardware is the same

Alcattle - the ram cooling is strictly 4 showoff, and they are about hmm...35 $ so i want them

I was already thinking about another drive for music - but atm. i havent got anymore money, that the cost of the system.

About the cpu cooling, goodidear, that would be easier 2 do i right away, so i dont have 2 open everything up again. but i cant afford it atm..
but good advice

 

[alcattle]

OK, you know what you need, and I scoped out that site and read what I could but there is not a decent PSU to be had, so that one is ok.

Thx for the reply

I think the powersupply is ok, but im a bit worried about the noise, but i read a lot of tests and the noise is the only "bad" thing about the system
