New Build
Posted: Sat Nov 30, 2013 12:42 pm
Hey guys,
So since my desktop broke down a while ago, I've been thinking of building a complete new system. I've done bits and pieces of research and produced the following list (from http://www.hardwareversand.de):
To those of you with more knowledge, how does that look? I'm reluctant to pay more than €700 for the build (~£550-580) but want something that will hold me over for the next few years. I can salvage a 500 GB HDD, Optical Drive, mouse, keyboard, wireless card, OS, speakers, and monitor from my previous build, so that's why they aren't included in the list. I do imagine I'll update some of those possibly early next year though as well, depending on finances! In particular my monitor is only 1440 x 900 as far as I remember, so hope to get an upgrade for that at some point. Is the GFX card overkill for my current resolution?
Cheers for any comments!
