I am going to order my final parts (I have a motherboard - ASUS Crosshair Formula III) and would like your views on the parts
Sell the motherboard on and go SandyBridge?
If not, your parts look fine although personally i would get a Seasonic/Be Quiet PSU for the price of your Coolermaster PSU.
Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
I don't want to go SB.
How is the quality on the Be Quiet PSU's?
I have managed to get everything on Today only so far
Way higher than a coolermaster. Coolermaster are pretty dire for PSUs.
Sweet thanks for the heads up!
Is there any you could recommend, i'd like modular for the cable tidying
You won't get modular in that price bracket, not form a decent brand anyway.Originally Posted by Predator

This unit is built around a Seasonic AFAIK.

its 59.98 on today only
If you don't spending the extra then i don't see/know of anything wrong with that.

Cheers, so other than that it is all good?
Avoid XFX, due to the stupid returns policy they have with scan.
Get another brand. (Scan tech's word & mine)
Can you elaborate?
XFX Have lifetime warranty? So i can RMA straight through them and not scan?
Pretty sure you have to go through scan, when i RMA'd a card that was in my mates system it went :
Take to scan, scan witness fault.
Send to XFX
XFX 2 weeks later return card to scan, no fault found.
Scan engineers AGAIN witness the fault.
Goes back to XFX. Comes back no fault found.
Scan have had enough with this and just swap the card out for a gigabyte for me.
All in all..scan are excellent, i use them as i live locally and speak to the guys quite often. Im constantly building PC's (Its my business) and will never use an XFX card again.
Hmm I may research the asus one then!
Ok due to XFX return issues and the coolermaster PSU. This is my new list, I am waiting untill 1pm to order to check out todays 'Today Only' updates
Just a quick word of warning about the antec psu, it's semi-modular, it still has modular but about 5 cables hard wired in.
still a good psu for the cost.
ps xfx lifetime warranty only counts in the US, for the rest of the world it's just a standard 1or2 years (depending on product)

Sorry photobucket links broken
Its the cheapest decent modular psu i could find, I am going to look on today only when it updates...
XFX Is out the window the Asus performs a bit better and better support and its not much more money
