Hi,
I'm looking build a computer from scratch which main purpose will be gaming. I've assessed my options and my current budget is from £950 to £1000. I'm leaning towards AMD because I've been used to AMD builds so far.
I'm going to be playing at a 1920x1080/1200 resolution, depending on which monitor I buy.
AMD 6 Core Build:
Antec 900 Nine Hundred - Gaming Case with 200mm Top Fan - No PSU
£70.48 - £60 ex Vat
G-Skill 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1600MHz/PC3-12800 Ripjaw Memory Kit CL7(7-8-7-24) 1.65V
£83.58 - £72 ex Vat
Asus M4N98TD EVO nForce 980a SLI Socket AM3 DDR3
£96.26 - £82 ex Vat
Samsung HD103SJ Spinpoint F3 1TB Hard Drive SATAII 7200rpm 32MB Cache - OEM
£47.99 - £41 ex Vat
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium - Licence and media - 1 PC - OEM - DVD - 64-bit - English
£75.20 - £64 ex Vat
PALIT GTX 460 SONIC 1024MB GDDR5 DUAL-DVI HDMI VGA Out PCI-E Graphics Card - X2
£328.96 - £280 ex Vat
Corsair 750W HX Modular PSU
£112.76 - £96 ex Vat
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T 2.8GHz 9MB Cache Socket AM3 Retail Box Processor
£156.20 - £133 ex Vat
Samsung SH-S223 22x DVD±RW DL & RAM SATA Optical Drive - OEM Black
£12.99 - £11 ex Vat
Total = £982.90 - £837 ex Vat
My particular concerns are:
- That the PSU should run everything fine.
- That the AM3 motherboard would run 2 GTX 460's in SLI fine.
- That the case would have suffecient cooling and space for everything.
I intend to purchase the items as soon as possible.
I'm UK based, so i would preferable use ebuyer and overclockers.co.uk
Thanks in advance for reading through this.
