Hi Guys
I was planning a new build using:
- Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H 785G Socket AM3
- AMD Athlon II X4 630 Socket AM3 2.8GHz - overclock to 3.6GHz
- Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
- Antec 300 Three Hundred Case
- Kingston 2gb Ddr3 1600mhz Hyperx
1TB drive, probably a Samsung.
All other components I have including a 500W Corsair PSU
The main thing about the above is I have a ATI HD 5870 graphics card already that needs to fit (it wont fit inside my current case), according to http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=106242 the Antec case will be fine, I'm on a tight budget so I think the above should give me the best value.
I'm also not sure if I need a special motherboard for my graphics card, looking at the picture on ebuyer I dont think anything should interfere with the graphics card..
Any advice with the above will be much appreciated as I havent built a PC for years and not up to date on the latest technologies
