On Friday a friend of mine will be coming over to help build my new computer. It will be used for web browsing, DVD watching and some fairly basic games.
I've managed to come up with the following system, and am looking for any last-minute recommendations (especially for a case and PSU).
I need two separate hard drives.
My friend recommended OCZ ram but Umart (www.umart.com.au) are not currently stocking 4GB 1066 OCZ so am I right to to assume that G-Skill is fairly comparable (even though a bit more expensive)?
My budget is around the $1200 mark.
Umart is a lot closer, so I'll probably end up heading there on thursday night.
MSY UMART
CPU INTEL CORE2 DUO E8400 $189.00 $189.00
MOBO GIGABYTE EP45-DS3L $133.00 $133.00
RAM G-SKILL 4GB DDR2 1066 $155.00 $155.00
GPU GIGABYTE 8800GT $198.00 $199.00
HDD 2 X WD 250GB $114.00 $124.00
DVD 20x SATA SAMSUNG $25.00 $25.00
CASE ?
SCREEN 22” 2MS SAMSUNG $272.00 $279.00
PSU ?
TOTAL $1,086.00 $1,104.00
One last question, does anyone know which card I can buy (preferably available from Umart) to add 2 or more analogue video inputs to this system?
Thanks
