    Default £800 Desktop

    Yeah so, if your bored at school / work, want a little project to do, make me a £800 desktop, no peripherals. Links to the site you got the parts from would be required. (Pref micro-direct).

    I wish I could give some kind of reward to the best system made, I guess its +rep for now though.

    All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. We are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectivly. There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream and we're the imagination of ourselves.

    Some of the same parts are a few quid cheaper on other sites, but i'll stick to MicroDirect.

    Motherboard: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(18217)...35-LGA775.aspx - £88
    CPU: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(21806)...Efficient.aspx - £124
    RAM: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(32155)...-DDR2-PC2.aspx - £64
    DVD-RW: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(37351)...lus-Black.aspx - £16
    HDD: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(15155)...007200rpm.aspx - £44
    GfX: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(37512)...DDR3-PCIE.aspx - £265
    PSU: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(31041)...22-EPS12V.aspx - £78
    Vista: http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(16276)...um-64-Bit.aspx - £59

    That comes to £738, excluding a case so you've got £62 to spend on a case that you like if you want to keep within your budget http://www.microdirect.co.uk/product...82&s=14&cpp=10

    I'd suggest go over budget and get a nice case, a good case can mean a difference of up to 20°.

    With air cooling your components will never be below what your room temperature is.

    Indeed. Depends what you're into though.. If you want performance or looks. Some cases have a compromise between the two.
