You need a screen to go with it?, Just a point before i start tho is it safe to keep computer equipment in a conservatory?. Sure its not going to advertise for people to break a window and nick it?...

one other thing....Conervatory's are HOT in summer and cold in winter. Whats the humidity like it there in the cold?

bit short of a vid card tho :(

thanks for that Tig

wont be needing a screen+i dont see a graphics card? will any graphics card fit, where is it all from

the conservatory dont get v.hot......thanks to tinted glass

As for security
you would have to jumb over a 10ft wall ,stop the alarm and destract the dog.....so i think it will be ok in there

Any card that doesn't draw too much power. Peeps have had up-to a 6800GT in theirs

what would be a good card that will play all new games at decient speeds, but not draw too much power?

6800GT would be the boy for that, or even a 6600Gt

I spec'd those components from Microdirect.co.uk, the retailers section will give you a good idea of who to use tho, support forums for scan.co.uk and komplett.co.uk are both on these forums, and i tend to shop from both of these too.

I'd say you might be best with a 6600GT for around £120-£150 making the final price just about £700, they are pretty good mid range cards, if you want 6800GT's you are talking 250+ from what i can see.
