Hi everyone, cause it´s my first post here. I´m petoniano from Spain. I´m quite newbe about this, but after reading a lot here and other forums I´m planning to order a build like this, what do you think about it?
- Primary Use: A litle bit of everything including video editing, (all in user level)
- Secondary Use: Gaming. (f.ex COD4)
- OC: I´m not sure because i don´t have the knowledge, maybe i´ll do my first steps in overclocking
- Not really planning crossfire at the moment (maybe in the future?)
- I´ve panic with the system heat, i had a bad experience with my last PC (many reboots, stacked, one Mobo damaged) It´s in a quite hot room.
Here it is: (i put the price here in Euros, the conversion euro-dollar for pc components is near to 1:1, maybe a litle more $ i think)
MoBo: Asrock P45XE-R (94€)
CPU: Q8200 (169€)
Cooler: ¿?
Mem: G. Skill 2 x 2 Gb DDR2-800 PC2-6400 CL4 (55€)
GPU: Asus EAH4850/HTDI Glaciator (149€)
PSU: OCZ ModXStream Pro 600W (82€)
HD: Seagate ST3500320AS 7200rpm 500Gb (54€)
CASE: Antec Three Hundred (54€)
total ~650€
I already have screen, keyb, mouse, speakers 2.1, IDE optical drive and printer.
Questions: I´ve choosen Q8200 because i think works with less temperature and i´m not a great OCker (the other option in the same price are Q6600 and E8400) (read a lot but not sure yet)
The cooler included is not enough? should i get a better one?
Reading here i think i´ve understood that for this system DDR3 or DDR2 1066 are not worth.
ATI radeon HD4850 will let me play most games with good resolution and FPS.
The rest of the components are half my litle knowlegde, half read here.
What do you think?, advices and thoughts are welcomed please, i don´t want to do a bad choice.
Thank you very much
