all of it's good, I'd get a bigger and faster hdd, but it doesn't really matter. your also missing RAM... I'd get this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231145
ahh thanx for the recomendation..ill gt a similair 1 to that from a UK shop.. thanx for the check tho.. much appreciated
yeah i doo need to order some...short on money so it will av to be 2gb for the time being..im only going to be using xp so it shouldnt be too much of a problem...would corsair ram be good or should i go for crucial? thanx for the reply sam
Corsair are in my opinion the best RAM manufacturer, or one of. Crucial are not. I strongly recommend getting all your RAM now as that allows you to use a matched 2x2GB set, which will run better and allow for much better overclocking than 4x1GB, which you'll end up if you buy your RAM in two halves (they don't sell single 2GB sticks of decent memory). 2x2GB really isn't that expensive at the moment.
