Hello and welcome,

Looks like a nice rig. The PSU could stand to be a bit higher rated and the sound card may be surplus depending if you need the extra connections it gives.

Had to go for the soundcard cos I record on PC too. Onboard sound has a 1-2 sec latency when recording

Thanks guys for the welcome

Hi and welcome to the community,

I have to agree with my fellow PCS members, the PSU is a bit lacking for a £1000 gaming PC. I have a 650W PSU and my £685 PC uses up about 500W. Also I prefer Nvidia to ATI ^.^

anyways, that aside... enjoy your stay
