ok so a few weeks ago it was my birthday and I wanted a new computer so I don't need to be downstairs to play games all the time and do photoshop work for college, so my dad offered to buy the pieces and I would put them together and pay him back.
At the moment I only want it to run MW2 and Eve which are the main games. Can also run Aion really prettyfully XD. It's not the best gaming computer but it's a good start which I can build on.:
Power Supply: 650W
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EQ45M-S2
Processor: Intel Dual Core 2.93 Ghz
Graphics Card: Radeon HD 4770 (512mb) (680 Streams)
Ram: 4GB
Hard Disk Space: 1T (2 x 500gb)
Also have these wierd ethernet cabes which go into your plug socket ;D great speed so far
Only using windows xp at the moment, cheaper to upgrade to 7, just gotta pay my dad back first^^
Still need to buy a HD Monitor, maybe 2 and I need to get some cable tidys for ym case.
So yeah comments are appreciated and improvements etc, strapped for cash atm but can always imrpove xx

Sorry forgot to mention, the drive that I ordered turned out to be broken and chewed up discs, luckily not the windows install disc, so using an old one till the new one comes.

Never argue with an idiot, he'll drag you down to his level, and beat you with experience.

550, maybe 600. can't remember too much cos the case came with the power. It's over 500 though., keyboard was an extra 50, screen 140 (screen was bought a year ago), speakers 30, mouse 30. All bought a year ago. so probably on my whole setup around 750-800? Originally Posted by StefanWolves
