Hi, its been a while since i've been on here, but im getting a new system and i knew this would be the place to ask about it.
Before you all go mental at me, yes it is a pre-built system, but i dont have time to build it myself. This is due to me havin to go back to uni in the next few days and this computer i'm typing from is going in the next few days also, so i gotta be quick!
Im buying online from pc specialists, the current system is as follows;
ASUS P5QL
Quad Q8300 (really wanted the Q9400 but cant afford )
2GB CORSAIR DOMINATOR 1066MHz
RADEON HD 4850 (512 mb model)
Vista Home Premium
250gig hard disk
22x Dual Layer Lightscribe DVD burner
450W Quiet Dual Rail PSU (anyone know what model their psu's are? bit iffy on this)
22 Inch Wide TFT (1680 x1050 top res)
3 year Warranty.
Price: £946 inc VAT and Delivery.
I really couldn't find anything at all on the Q8300, has anyone got any views on it? Is the step up to a Q9400 really worth it?
450watts should be enough for this system too right? I was thinking of buying a Corsair 512 PSU if this one is a bit crap and sticking that in there.
Going for a large warranty over higher end hardware, as this is gonna have to last me a few years!
Thanks!
Dave
