"There she blows!"
This is about it now in terms of componants etc. I have a monitor already and mice+keyboards+FloppyDisk. below is the list with links to the hardware on dabs.
Motherboard: Asutek A8N-E(£66.64)
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3700(£159.38)
Case+PSU: Antec Sonata II 450W(£79.98)
OR Dabs value 480W(£36.03)
Memmory: Corsair 2x512MB (£59.98)
OR Corsair 512MB (£27.96)
SoundCard: Terratec Aureon 7.1 Universe(£119.99)
OR Creative Audigy 4 OEM(£37.56)
Graphics card: Gigabyte Geforce PCX6600 256MB(£83.88) – don’t need a card for top flight gaming.
CD/DVD writer: HP DVD 840i (£47.68)
Hard drive: Seagate Barracuda 40gig (£32.53) – mainly just for boot/OS drive, I have a 200Gig for a secondary drive already.
with these choices i end up on the cheapest options with a PC for £491.66.
With all the expensive choices a max of £650.36.
The main thing is have i missed anything that anyone else can spot? I think thats all i need? does it seem reasonable?
