Hi,

Just about ready to buy a load of bits and pieces from you for a new system, but...

1) I've just seen the new NZXT Lexa case - not sure if that curved metal facia is
the best case front I've seen, or the tackiest... but are you likely to get them in?

2) I'm putting off buying a graphics card until the next releases come out from
Nvidia (February?) (and to a lesser extent ATI - cross fire just seems to buggy at the moment for the X1900 range to be a serious prospect if you're looking at buying one card now and another as easy upgrade path in a year's time) so I can pick up a 7800 GT/GTX at a realy good price, likely from yourselves... *breathe* ... and will probably want one of the new Arctic Cooling Accelero coolers as well, if you can get them?

Any chance of getting some AC Ryan gear? Some of their stuff looks pretty good and innovative. Like the FX Cables and such like.

Samsung TFT's would be nice too, i'd rather get them from scan if possible

Quick - Check Today Only - No 2 .... is that what your after

Artic Cooling Graphics coolers should be available after their launch as well.

As for the rest, I'll mail the list to purchasing again

[DavidM]

Not a bad case at all... apparently it's been rather popular as well.

I think you'll struggle mate - from what I can tell, the MX3100 led a short but happy life. It's now been replaced with two different sets - the MX3000 (which is essentially the same, no MX1000, but the mouse is laser-equipped, and isn't rechargeable), and the very-cool MX5000, which uses Bluetooth, and has a new keyboard with an LCD display (this one has the MX1000).

I'm looking at getting the MX5000 because the Bluetooth will let me use my phone and stuff with my PC, but I have an MX3100 at the moment so it seems a bit pointless.

I got the mx5000 with my system. Sent it back within a week. The technology is rubbish, prone to disconnect on the slightest of interference and hangs horribly in mid sentence causing letters to repeat for up to a minute like thisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss...

A cordless solution using RF rather than bluetooth is far better

Arctic Silver Ceramique Definitely

Bum! Would've been! Put my order though last week and went for the Gigabyte 3D Aurora for my first PC build, which went swimmingly over the weekend, despite the rugby and alcohol!

Installed the graphics card last night (lovely little 7300GS while I'm waiting for the 7900s to come out) and am happy to report a lovely blue-cathode- ray-illuminated purring PC was born into the world at about 8.30 last night!

Some recommended products:

A few LCD Character displays (blue ones). 16x2 line displays. WIth and without mounts. These are very cool in HTPC setups. They a re sold here - http://www.componentsuk.co.uk/catalo...90509d3de1113c

Their supplier is www.xspc.biz. Getting displays WITH connectors pre-fitted are rare, and the price is good. But I'd rather buy from Scan. Get a few in, and watch them fly out of the door!

Also, try to sorce that new Zalman GPU cooler (the 900 version, that is lower profile than the 700).

Cheers

damm thats sure is cheap for a display! Havent seen any for that sort of price before, i could well be interested in using up my last two drive bays for one of them if the price is right

[stud]

digit - glad you agree! - this retailer can't seem to be bothered to get 16x2 blue displays. I think scan will thou!

PS- Scan, reserve one for me!

[DavidM]

I don't know if we'll be getting them or not - but they do have some good ones (i've a Matrix Orbital display on one of my own systems... and the other has the G15 keyboard )

I would love to see an expansion of your memory such as products by Gskill , geil and ocz altho corsair are good.
