Building New gaming PC- Help!
I need a new PC.
Budget: £900-1200ish. I am interesting in Overclocked, so I need a cpu cooler, i was considering a tuniq 120, but i'm a bit overwhelmed by the choices, any help would be great. The x1950 is a temporary card, with the intention of upgrading when the 9800's come out, or maybe later if its still serving me well. Either this or buy a 8800 right now. I need to know what you reckon the best place to buy these components is, I'm considering Overclockers, and Dabs among others.(These prices are from overclockers btw) Thanks for any help you can give me. (Likely to buy in the next few days) Current proposal: Asus ATI Radeon X1950 Pro HTDP 256MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (£96.34) Antec Nine Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case (£70.49) Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.66GHz (1333FSB) - Retail (£129.24) Samsung SpinPoint T HD501LJ 500GB SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM (£62.26) Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition inc.

Welcome to PCM. Your parts list is solid.
Check if your DVD Burner comes with software. Many OEMs do not. Swap it for a unit that does have it. Samsung hard drives are not the best. We recommend Seagate and Western Digital. Check out www.ebuyer.com also.
