i had on a previous post explained that i would only have £1500 for my build in october. But i have been able to up my budget.. So this is the new build. This will not be my case this case on this list will be for my old parts to go into i already have a nice big thermaltake case from a couple of years ago.
If you guys know a cheaper place that i could get some of these parts please let me know... or if you think i should change some of the other parts. Like the ATI cards i will go for a different brand once other s are available. Kind Regards Adi
Can you wait? The Nehalem CPUs are about to come out. They will be about TWICE as fast at the same speed in multithreaded apps compared to current quads. And they will be about the same price.
Will it run on the same motherboard..? but im not placin my order until October 30th I know thats far away and things will change on the build... but im sooo excited
You just can't plan builds that far in advance. Ask again nearer the time. I would avoid premade watercooling kits and cheap nasty cases though, neither will give you good cooling. Rest of your components for the meantime are fine, but choose a manufacturer other than Powercolor for the GPU - no warranty on those (and both ATI and OcUK are a pain for warranties)
I have already got a thermaltake case and this cheap case is to house my old parts. Also could you show me a example of a custom water cooler for 100pounds... Kind regards Adi
Indeed, going pre-made on watercooling isn't ideal, but going cheap is much worse. WC needs to be done thoroughly and properly to be safe and beneficial, and for that you're talking nearer £200. However, you can get by with air cooling for practically everything except ludicrous overclocking these days, and I highly recommend you do so.
