    Because you don't have m/any fans/hard drives/graphics cards that need 2 PCIe/DVD drives... for the minimalist's PC, there would probably be more unused cables

    Re: Next Rig - Your Thoughts?

    Thanks for your thoughts peeps

    In the end I went for:

    Case: Coolermaster CM 590
    CPU : Intel Q9450 Retail
    Fan : Retail
    Mbd : Asus P5E WS Professional
    RAM : Corsair TwinX DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC8500 - 2x 1Gb
    HD : Samsung F1 750Gb x2 (RAID1)
    PSU : Corsair 650W TX
    Cost: £643 and a bit

    Fingers crossed it'll arrive in short order, it's coming from three different suppliers (Scan, Aria, Microdirect) so it's a race vroom vroom!
    If I remember I'll take some piccies and make some notes on the case for others reference.

    tattie bye for now .....
