Bullet to be bitten on Monday 18th. I had to wait a while to save some pennies for a better basic spec' than I was going for at first.
I've gone for the best I can afford while lowering the graphics card spec'
I wanted the GeForce GTS480 but it's impossibly expensive.
I'll go with the GTS450 for now and upgrade when prices come down.
Just the basics:
1GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTS450 GDDR5 PCI EXPRESS - DirectX® 11
Intel® Core i7 Quad Core Processor i7-960 (3.20GHz) 4.8GTs/8MB Cach
Motherboard ASUS® P6X58D PREMIUM: DDR3, USB 3.0 & SATA 6.0GB/s, 3-Way SLI
RAM 6GB KINGSTON HYPER-X TRI-DDR3 1600MHz, X.M.P (3 x 2GB KIT
500GB SERIAL ATA 3-Gb/s HARD DRIVE WITH 8MB CACHE (7,200rpm)
PSU and case cooling 600W Quiet 80 PLUS Quad Rail PSU + 120mm Case Fan
Processor Cooling TITAN FENRIR EVO EXTREME HEATPIPE CPU COOLER
ONBOARD 8 CHANNEL (7.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit.
Computer buffs, any advice or comment? Please.
