- I'm living in Australia so the choice of product is much limited (wish we had newegg here)
- I want to be able to use Dell's U2311H monitor with its Eyefinity feature, so I will stick with ATI
- Generally I don't like spend too much on CPU and GPU since they depreciate quite quickly
Ok now here is the list (the price is in AUD):
MON DELL U2311H $300
GPU Gigabyte RADEON 5770 1GB $186
CPU AMD AM3 Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition $174
MB GA-870A-UD3 $138
MEM 4G PATRIOIT OR TRIDENT 1600 $125
HD SEAGATE 500G X 2 RAID 0 $100
CASE LIAN LI PC8B $115
PSU Seasonic S12-II 80+ 520W $99
COOLING Coolermaster Universal Hyper 212+ $39
Things I'm not sure about:
- Purchase a SSD instead to boost system speed? But I'm not familiar with SSD technology and I heard they are still relatively expensive and unstable
- 8G memory?
Now say if I don't mind spending another 200~300 bucks, where should I put the money to? and any comment on the list?
This is the price list (where I plan to buy from)
