Is this set-up OK? - Fragma - 12-09-2011 My budget I guess is £1,000, and the following comes to around £970. If anybody can have a look through the following parts and give me some feedback that would be great.

Can I ask what £ means? RE: Is this set-up OK? - BreShiE - 12-09-2011 £ is for GBP (Great British Pounds) Fragma all that is amazing! You could turn your computer from an ordinary tower to a built-in effing tank with those parts. Also I've seen that case before mate, my mums friend had one, with neon lights and a neon inter cooler, it looked so nice, the neons were blue. But yeah for your budget I think that's pretty good, although for your graphics, I'd go for the highest quality possible. (Monitor wise) To really pay attention to detail. But yeah, looks good mate. That would definitely turn your normal tower into a beast of a machine!

RE: Is this set-up OK? - BreShiE - 12-09-2011 Also if you can stretch another £110 you should get this; http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_GB/pd/productID.231103000?utm_source=RazerStore_EU&utm_campaign=Store_HP_EU&utm_medium=leftbanner RE: Is this set-up OK? - AMD - 12-09-2011 Pretty good build as for prices can't really tell since i need the $ sign. Anyways the I7 is a beast of a CPU you are one lucky guy RE: Is this set-up OK? - Fragma - 12-10-2011 £1000 is about $1570 Thanks guys.

I'd rather put that money towards a HD PVR and a Mic. RE: Is this set-up OK? - BreShiE - 12-10-2011 (12-10-2011, 05:42 AM)Fragma Wrote: £1000 is about $1570 True, I just love Razor products. Erm, if you need a mic this one I heard is quite good. http://store.razerzone.com/store/razerusa/en_GB/pd/productID.234280400 The sound is in stereo but is still quite good. If you click "Technical Specifications" you can see the actual quality of it.

Basically I've decided to go for 16gb RAM, but rather than filling all 4 slots, just filling 2, so getting 2x8gb. Also decided to get an SSD to run the op system and app installs. Going to be a bit pricier but it should be worth it. |
