If you get more stuff from ebuyer, you get free shipping over 100quid i believe, save a tenner! |

Seems a nice rig....although I thought the general concensus was that intel are the better of the two cpu makers......did you take that into consideration when deciding?

The triple core AMD's take on the Dual cores of Intel and win pretty handily. They're good for him.
That card is very very cheap too, brilliant price. Seems you read Carbon's guide? If not, go take a look. He would approve of that build though. |

Yup, I read Carbons guide thats where I got most of my info from, it looks like he knows what he talking about.
I will probably order most of the stuff from ebuyer, as shipping costs are too much at overclockers. I will only order the graphics card from overclockers. Made a mistake the hard drive is 32mb cache and the mobo is: (I dont think the one i chose supports phenom II) Gigabyte GA-MA790X-UD4P AMD £93.76 http://www.ebuyer.com/product/164682 Someone recommended me this cooler for best bang for buck when I want to overclock cpu but I can't afford it yet. Do you guys think it is the best value? http://www.ebuyer.com/product/158603 |
