QUOTE (Duncan @ Oct 1 2008, 11:50 AM)  I've just bought this for just under £700: AMD Phenom 9950 AM2+ 4GB Ram 500GB Hard Drive NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280 1GB Microsoft® Windows Vista Home 64-bit 650W Thermaltake Toughpower 3 Year Bronze Warranty @ Andrew: I would serious suggest upgrading that PSU to maybe a 1000W. Otherwise you might find your system slightly unstable. I could be wrong, but if you're spending that much what is an extra £50 to upgrade the PSU? Yah, you might be right - I'll see how it goes! I based it on a music PC spec I found on the web and forgot to up it when I added a couple of drives. I have the PSU already though so I'll give it a go and get a better one if necessary - thanks for the advice! -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

QUOTE (Vinod Saranga @ Oct 2 2008, 03:46 AM) Does this old guy play games? You're as old as you feel! Last game I beat was Assasins Creed on the PS3 QUOTE (mattacuk @ Oct 2 2008, 05:00 AM) Andrew is my hero. He plays guitar, writes Pearl scripts, and now he has an 8 core monster PC !! Just awsome And Matt is my hero for broadly similar reasons - he just needs to keep his mind more on shark fishing than the boring kind ... QUOTE (OrganisedConfusion @ Oct 2 2008, 05:25 AM) Where did you buy the parts for this PC? newegg.com QUOTE (bmh1109 @ Oct 2 2008, 01:21 AM) check this out to workout what your power requirements should be close to... obviously not 100% accurate, but great for a ballpark figure.... http://extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine Great site thanks! It tells me I need 363 watts so I guess I am good

QUOTE (OrganisedConfusion @ Oct 2 2008, 09:18 AM) Things are so much cheaper in America. Your PC would cost double what you are paying here. Yeah, its a big part of why I moved over here - everything is cheaper (although prices are rising at the moment) and taxes are lower. I took a pay cut in absolute financial terms but more than made up for it because of those 2 facts, so in quality of life terms I got a decent pay rise
