Im hopefully going to be building a new gaming rig which i want to overclock near the end of this month
So far i have the following (not much tbh ):
CPU: E6570 - £130 inc. VAT
RAM: Need some advice
GPU: Need Some advice
MOBO: Need some severe advice
PSU: Corsair 520W HX V2 Series - £65 inc. VAT
COOLING: Need some advice
HDD 1: Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 320GB, SATA 200MBps, 16MB Cache - Already own
HDD 2: WD 7200RPM 160GB, SATA 150MBps, 16MB Cache - Already own
HDD 3: Seagate 7200RPM 80GB, IDE - Already own
SOUND: Creative X-Fi Extreme Audio Sound Card 24Bit 7.1 - £28 inc. VAT
CD/DVD: Samsung SH-S183L, SATA 150MBps - £18 inc. VAT
CASE: Need some advice (Prefer screwless HDD casing etc.)
- Since i'm new to overclocking and this will be my first build where i do some (hopefully not blowing anything ) my main issues are the Mother Board and the RAM choices.
- With the GPU im a little confused as i don't think i have enough to spend on the GTX but the smaller memory of the 8800GTS 320MB is a bit worrying for me with future games. I have a 17" screen with a resolution of 1280x1024
- The E6750 seems to be a good OC choice but im not sure whether a Q6600 would be a better use of my money
- My budget is around £700-£800
- With the CD/DVD drive being OEM there will be no cables right?
- Will the PSU have enough cables etc. to accomodate everything (and the correct ones )
Thankyou all
