Re: Buying and Building a new PC... HELP!!!
The DTS thing was about movies, say if you wanted to use an external AV receiver to handle the sound instead of the soundcard (its not really that important). For the processor, yeah maybe going with something like an E7300 on that budget is a good idea. As for the ATI HD4850/4870, you can't argue with cards that good value :).

Agreed, E7200 would probably be your best bet, looks of room for OC'ing on that, particularly with a good board.

Save the money and get an E5200.. there's barely any difference other than the £30 you save.
The E8200 with it's extra cache might be nice.. but in gaming at high resolutions who is going to notice, other than your bank manager?
