I'm looking to buy a new PC and have decided on http://www.chillblast.com/Chillblast-Fusion-Hurricane.html I'm leaving everything that comes as standard, the only thing I cant decide is whether to get the i5 overclocked which they do for no extra cost. Please dont reccommend I get the i7, i cant afford it with the graphics card etc that I want.
Obviously the overclocked machine will be quicker and I believe the PSU and fan selected on this unit is fine for overclocking (please correct me if I'm wrong!)
Is the overclocking worth the potential shorten lifespan of the PC/ potential problems overclocking has? I've been abit put off as my current PC is overclocked and I've had to return it 3 times for PSU/ motherboard failures, can't be 100% they were caused by the overclocking though!
I guess answers maybe more opinion than fact, thats fine I just need a little guidance
In case it makes a difference to your answers I use my PC for gaming, wow and FM mostly but I try out new games too. Dont use it for anything overly fancy like video/picture editing but it's usually left on for around 8 hours a day
Thanks
