So after my laptop decided to commit suicide with me at the keyboard, i have decided to get a new. This time its gonna be a desktop, meant for gaming and some odd photoshop coloring (wacom tablet and so on)
So what do you guys think abt this build!
OCZ, PSU 600W ModXStream Pro (modular cabels) ATX, Active PFC. 150x160x86mm
XFX, ATI HD5870 1GB DDR5 DUAL DVI TV PCI-E 850Mhz core 4.8Ghz mem
Western Digital, Caviar GreenPower 500GB HDD IntelliPower min.5400rpm 3.0Gb/s se
BenQ, 24" W TFT G2412HD Full HD 1920x1080 - 40000:1 - 5ms/2ms(GTG) D-sub / DVI-D
Is this a build that seems sensible? I am thinking about the motherboard for example, im not gonna OC but would it make a big difference to get a better one?
And the harddrive, i tried to find some reviews, but couldent... Is this a bad harddisk/drive, for this system?
Hope u guys can help, gonna buy next week or so (when the get the HD5870 in stock.
I changed the HDD to black edition sp a normal 7200rpm drive. I also changed the motherboard to a Deluxe version instead.
Now my question is, IS there any reason to get that motherboard if i am NOT overclocking?? Or shud i spend the cash on sum ram instead...
Is the difference even something i will notice if i get 8gb cl7 instead of cl9
