Hi all,
I'll be ordering components from Scan for a new PC build in the next few weeks (just waiting for B3 stepping boards to become available). This will be my first build in over 8 years so I'm relishing the challenge! I've put together a shopping list for parts and I'd appreciate it if I could get some feedback. My budget is £1200.
Corsair 600T
Intel Core i5 2500K
Corsair H50-1
Asus P8P67
8GB Corsair XMS3 DDR3
MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti TWIN FROZR II 1GB
128GB Crucial RealSSD C300
2x 1TB Samsung Spinpoint F3
650W Corsair HX
Corsair CA-HS1A Gaming Headset
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Comes to £1220 inc VAT
This build replaces an old P4 system which struggles with gaming at 1280x1024 so you can imagine I'm really looking forward to building this beast. I'll be keeping my 22" Samsung 2253BW (1680x1050) for the time being although I will look to upgrade it as soon as funds become available.
