PC Building.
« on: November 19, 2012, 09:21:45 pm »
Sooo...



Any recommendations?

Still need to add a GPU and a monitor. Thinking of the Nvidia 660 but not sure what model yet and a 24'' monitor at 1920*1080

Nooo my old PC pretty much sucked :L and now I have quite a lot of money to make a better one. I just don't know if I should buy one which is more expensive or build one. I don't want to spend more than £600 but it's getting close to £800 with a graphics card and monitor. Don't know what to do

http://pcpartpicker.com/ is quite good for this kind of thing, especially as it seems overclockers charges more for everything
will read and answer your forum PMs when I'm less busy!

your conf. is ok but i suggest you to take 1600 MHZ memory instead of 1333. Also for a SSD Disk look at  Samsung 830 , at the moment it's one of the best.

Ge-force 660 it's ok , but if you are planning to play  on full hd resolution   Radeon HD 7850/7870 is the best way to go.

Thinking about getting this and just making a case swap. Antec 300 is so old and dated now.

I really can't be arsed building this time around

Unless somebody can recommend me a good enough gaming PC for around £500. Then I can just buy a monitor and hopefully spend around £650. Don't want to go any higher

get a gtx 670 instead , gtx 660 and 670 price gap isn't big ( not sure about UK ) , and it will last you at least next 2-3 years compared to the 660/660ti
