What do you guys think?

Cant wait for it to arrive. Had this old one for 7 years. Only updated Graphics card and ram since then lol.

I had a budget of £600 - £700 ended up spending about £740 but im happy with it. Gonna beat the pants of my old one aha.


Can anyone tell me who makes the graphics cards for PCSpecialist? What i mean is, is it a normal nvidea or another maker that does it?
I just want to know what its gonna look like. The cased one or the dual fan looking one. :p

Also i was wondering about USB 3.0, i think the case has one on it. Dunno if i can add more or not. Wont matter really.
My pc thinks my 2.0's arent 2.0's and keeps tellign me to upgrade for faster speeds lol. And 3 of teh 6 i have dont work now.

But not for long! woo.

Morning,
Your motherboard has USB 3.0, they should be placed at the back of your system. I'd suggest trying the onboard audio fist before buying a sound card and consider upgrading to the caviar black as the main drive.

Ooh the Palit one. Looks nice thanks.

Yeah i was trying to stick to a 6-700 price so i just picked that lower HD. I can always swap it out later. Ive never had a sound card so i thought id try one. Better sound for gaming. Plus it will let me plug things into it. Like my guitar and stuff. Using the mic or line in jack gives a low sound quality. :p
