    upgrade time! + voltages query

    hi peeps!

    been given some cash to upgrade my computer, current specs are to the left of the screen (please don't laugh )

    The components that im going to buy are:

    i5 2500k

    P8P67

    Corsair 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1600MHz/PC3-12800 XMS3 i5 Memory Kit CL9(9-9-9-24) 1.65V or

    Corsair Memory XMS3 Classic 4GB DDR3 1600 MHz CAS 9 Dual Channel 1.5v

    WD 500gb harddrive caviar blue

    windows 7 64bit

    samsung dvd-rw

    I dont want a bottleneck in the system thus I might even buy a hd 5770, the uses are only photoshp, dreamweaver , visual basic and general surfing on the net but might play some games if im that bored lol my budget is around £500, got psu , case and the fans. Hopefully I get some advice whether the equipment im buying is worth it or not.

    Also, I have a coolermaster silent pro m 700w its fairly new, however im getting paranoid about the voltages. Bios state that my voltages are:

    12.110
    5.02
    3.296

    I dont have access to a multimeter so can't exactly moniter the voltages with accuracy and I also know that bios voltage may sometimes be quiet off as well.

    Any help apreciated, sorry for the long post, am typing off of my ipod touch

    Those voltages are way within spec, nothing to worry about provided they are correct.
