Guys this is all from OCuk. I play alot of games so is them monitors any gd? i orgionally wanted an X800XL but they arent available on AGP yet. And god knwos how long i would have to wait!

Would you guys reccomend any changes? I really only have £1300 to spend and i was hoping to get all the above and a Creative Zen but as youc an see im over budget already Havent seen anywhere cheaper but then again i dont know many places.If u guys think i could get stuff cheaper it would be great. I would also have to pay for delivery which would bo to N.Ireland.

Kind Regards

the spec looks good. however, what are you doing for mobo, cpu, ram, psu, OS?

those monitors are supposed to be good, but i have no experience with them. that said, i dont believe that many games support dual monitor set-ups, and thus having the two monitors for gaming would be superfluous. furthermore, if this system is to replace your 9800XT, then i would suggest keeping the old card, as it will still be able to comfortably handle most games with that monitor at its native resolution.

also bare in mind that you will need one or two fans for your case. i would go for the akasa amber series fans from overclockers.

How 'bout 2 17'' Digimate @ Aria? Cheaper and it's not bad for gaming, i'm using one. You may find lower price if you look else where instead of OCUK, that is, do a research.

3000 P4 @ 3.60, 1GB Corsair TwinX Pro PC4000, Asus 9800Xt At 470 core and 760 Ram Speed, Abit IC7 Max-3, 2x Western Digital 120GB HDD's, 1x Western Digital 160GB HDD, 1x Western Digital 200Gb HDD, Sound Blaster Audigy, Asetek WaterChill With Dual Radiator, 19' Iiyama Pro CRT Moniter and a Hardcano 12

i will be keeping the above but removing what im chaging with the above. im getting the two monitors also so that i can do two things at oncew so to speak. having two windows open etc.

Use www.kelkoo.co.uk to check for cheaper prices. Overclockers.co.uk are normally expensive

u really need two monitors for that, no offence but it seems like a bit of a waste of money, normally people get 2 monitors for like video editing.

[Lu-tze]

it seems to me that you are spending a lot of money for little performance benefit. i imagine that your 9800XT has one vga and one dvi? have you considered getting just one TFT and using it alongside your crt? also, is there anything wrong with your current sound and speaker set-up?

these minor issues aside, the system looks good. just make sure the gpu is dual dvi. perhaps look at getting a better keyboard. the logitech ultra-x is only £16 of overclockers. keyboards are a very personal thing, however.

You might want to take a look at pricegrabber, it's gotten me some nice deals before. I have to agree with pudds - ocuk is a wee bit expensive.
