This is my PCpartPicker, can anyone validate this is a good choice for the money I have?

It just scrapes the edges of my £425 budget.

All parts must be from Scan.co.uk (for the scan.co.uk insurance)
Apart from the windows 7 which is really cheap at CCL.

Is all of this compatible? I'm pretty much a noob and don't know jack (censorsed) about compatibility.

Feel free to change anything (I would deeply appreciate it)

I already have mouse/monitor/keyboard/hdd/dvd rewriter from my old PC (Bought in 2011 December, Acer Aspire x1920)

Thanks for reading :3

Not bad. But, is it possible for you to get the 6870?

 

[connor12312]

the 7770 I believe is good enough, with less noise and less heat, is it not? I believe it performs like a 6850?

 

[obsama1]

It beats the 6850. It does have less noise and less heat. It's in between the 6850 and 6870. It's a good GPU, and I'm not sure how much the 6870 is in England, but it's probably more expensive than the 7770.

 

[connor12312]

yeah, it's around $30-40 more. (Converted from £ to $)

 

[obsama1]

Not really worth it. Also, Piledriver comes out this year. You could wait a bit, and get the Piledriver version of the FX-4100. The problem is, as time goes by, the Phenoms get scarcer.

 

[connor12312]

I'd rather just buy it now, I mean, I can easily upgrade in the future when it becomes out of dates, I just wanna play some games on Medium with decent FPS

Is this all Compatible?

The 7770 can run on med, yes.

 

[obsama1]

Of course. Though, in the future, when you want to upgrade, you'll want a beefier PSU. 500W is a good PSU wattage, and gives you room.

 

[connor12312]

The PSU I'm using now is certified 80+ bronze, with 88% max efficieny, will this be able to power the card?

 

[obsama1]

Well, what's the wattage of it?

 

[connor12312]

400w i believe

 

[obsama1]

Definitely. The 7770 uses only 80 w at peak. However, if you OC, the PSU might not be able to handle all that.

 

[connor12312]

i won't oc, 3.4ghz is good enough
