(Edit: Thanks for moving the post for me)
(Edit 2: upgraded to the 2600k......still ldont know why i had to pay £15 more just to overclock my system -_-)
(Edit 3: w00t after my psu and graphics cards being out of stock, it's finally made it to awaiting testing ^_^ fingers crossed)

Hi guys my new comp has just gone into pre-testing and i just can't wait!!

I've needed a new one for a while and with my chirstmas bonus(no i'm not a banker) i thought i'd splash out on a new one so i can start recording my games and cast them an such.

In advance i would like to thank Darrin Cooper(who funnily enough shares my last name) and Matthew Griffin who helped answer some questions for me in the live chat. Also when it arrives ill name the guys who built/tested it for some credit for them ;)

Looks good.I could be wrong but your cpu is the locked version and cant be oced, so i would change the ram to samsung 1333MHz,you would save yourself some dosh bud or maybe change to the k version if money isnt an issue.

if it was an overclocked cpu it would say and look something like this. Intel® Core™i7-2600 Quad Core (3.40GHz, overcloced @4.3GHz 8MB Cache) + HD Graphics or something like that

Yup. The "K" CPUs are unlocked which makes it a hell of a lot easier to overclock. If you want to overclock then get either the 2500k or the 2600k.
