Building Computer (Approx £1500)

Slightly frustrating that it's the only thing that people care about... Could people stop talking about the headphones because they weren't really up for discussion in the first place.

To be fair, they are a bit subjective, it was bound to happen The other items like RAM, HDD, Graphics etc. should all work to your specified price range, the headphones were bound to cause a stir as people have different ideas of what a good set of headphones should cost Is there anything else you need to know about what's actually going in your computer?

Love how you ignored Jahovas post.

I don't need to answer a ridiculous post. Sennheiser are a ride-on-reputation brand and have been for a very long time. The headphones he quoted are small and worthless, they look ugly and would likely produce bland, boring sound due to (what i assume to be) a minuscule driver.

Also @Jahova shame on you for recommending sennheiser at all, that's almost (almost) worse than recommending bose.

You can save a lot of money in a number of small places. E.g. buy the OS from here http://www.software4students.co.uk/W...-software.aspx

They appear to only offer upgrade versions there.

It's a shame the only suggestion you can make is over the Sennheiser's, coincidentally the only thing not up for discussion. Especially when you were very helpful last time I built computer. You've changed.. for the worse.

Nothing in particular, just general improvements/refinements.

Just from a brief look I've some of the parts cheaper on Aria, although only a few pounds each.

You can do a full install from just an upgrade, read it up, you have to do a few 'tweaks'

Naturally entirely legal as well.

Makes no difference, your still using the same code? As long as you have a legal code what's the problem?

Looks fine to me. You need an aftermarket cooler so you can overclockkk.

Thats one I used to use, works great and is nice and quiet. (Bit of an annoying clip if you ever plan to disconnect it from the board again). The pre-applied thermal compound on it is also very good.
