I already have a monitor, speakers, HDD, DVD, keyboard, mouse, and OS. I just want someone to look over this to confirm that I didn't pick anything stupid. Budget is 300 USD before shipping. |

What OS are you putting on it?
Save 5 dollars: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820227298 Save 5 Dollars + 10 Dollar Rebate: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814102820 Free Shipping Promo Code - EMCLTPL36 (save another 5 bucks): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...LC3A-_-13131376 Use the money you saved to purchase this so you can upgrade the video card later on (maybe get a 4850): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16817702010 I have to say, that looks like a pretty solid little build for 300 dollars. I have no qualms in terms of parts used. :) |

To bad the case has no pretty lights though. 4670: 400 Watt or greater power supply (550 Watt for ATI CrossFireX™ technology in dual mode) 4850: 450 Watt or greater power supply with 75 Watt 6-pin PCI Express® power connector recommended (550 Watt and two 6-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX™ technology in dual mode) Of course the manufacturer will over clock and adjust the cards. The required Wattage will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. |

I've almost completely changed it since yesterday
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDet...st=Combo.201768 http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDet...st=Combo.198665 http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDet...st=Combo.197195 It totals up to $314.23 after shipping. QUOTE(jcp @ Jun 30 2009, 02:13 PM) But I have a feeling he is also wanting to overclock the processor. amirite? Of course I'm going to overclock it, why would I not? I'm going to overclock the GPU too. Also, I'm putting Windows 7 on it until the RC is expired, and then I'll either pirate a copy, or use one of my billions of spare XP product codes. I'm also planning on eventually adding another GPU in Crossfire. |
