    Finally ordered all the bits for my new build. Thanks for anyone who has helped me :)

    I've been pestering people on the forums for a couple of weeks now and I have finally settled on my new build. Just wanted to say thanks to anyone who has helped me.

    CPU = i5 2550k
    Cooler = Noctua NH-U12P SE2 Dual Fan
    RAM = 8GB 2x4GB CML8GX3M2A1600C9 LP
    MB = Asus P8Z77-V LE Z77
    GFX = 1536MB MSI GTX580 TWINFROXR2OC
    SSD = 128GB CRUCIAL M47M CT128M4SSD1
    HDD = 1TB SGATE ST1000DM003 SATA3
    PSU = 680W BN199 S/POWER E9 PSU CM


    Should run Diablo 3 well enough

    Got everything today and starting on the build. Everything was going well, I was actually quite enjoying it again

    Then I ran into a small problem, my new MB does not support IDE :O How long has IDE been obsolete, if it is? No biggie really, I ordered a new drive and that will be here tomorrow. Just a shame as it's all sat there built and I'm waiting to get stuck in and see if everything is working ok.

    Quite funny that the only bit from my old system I wanted to use was the DVD drive

    Never really been one for tidying up all the cables, so it's not going to be anything to impressive. I'll take a couple after I get the new drive tomorrow.

    I did take one earlier though, to text to my brother, as I could not believe the size of the heatsink I was slightly worried it was not going to fit in my case.
