    Mellow

    New com specs. shiit.

    So after a month of working on the service line. earned about thousand or so.

    but shit happened and my com broke down.

    so im getting a new one. here's the specs


    Core: Intel i5 3.1 ghz, 6mb cache
    mobo: asus h67-m sata6 (no idea waddafock is that)
    hard disk: seagate 500gb
    RAM: kingston ddr3 2gb(x2)
    Graphics card: Nvidia GTS 450 extreme 1024mb
    PSU: andyson silent g 480W
    DVD rewriter: samsung SH223(idk why im getting this. i put no cds to my com)
    Case: Some ATX Tower case with 2 fans.

    all these shit cause about 900 in my currency. maybe about 700 in USD.

    also to add, i thinking to change the core to i7 or get windows7. i cant choose between these two and im not getting those two at once.

    wad do ya all think?

    /discuss

    checked all of them

    either their fucking case is too small which would be too expensive or a big case with shit cores

    and a good core cost 400 and above. might as well build one yerself. /
    I see what you did there.

    hmm that's true.

    well you're on a budget.. can't expect a perfect computer.


    i just recently bought a laptop for $280, if i put $400 into it it'd be better than alienware.. good to go shopping on boxing day

    You have no clue what you're doing. Hurr durr, 700€ gets you a better Sandy Bridge build any day with a 5770 (I prefer it to the 450).

    Core: Intel i5 3.1 ghz, 6mb cache=pretty good
    mobo: asus h67-m sata6=sata6(6gb/s) is 2X the transfer speed of a Sata2(3gb/s)
    hard disk: seagate 500gb=should add a SSD as a boot drive and make that one for storage
    RAM: kingston ddr3 2gb(x2)=at least 6GB for gaming
    Graphics card: Nvidia GTS 450 extreme 1024mb=no problem
    PSU: andyson silent g 480W=1KW
    DVD rewriter: samsung SH223=make it a ASUS blu-ray reader/writer
    Case: Some ATX Tower case with 2 fans.=make is a good case with 3 or more fans, or result to watercooling

    Core: Intel i5 3.1 ghz, 6mb cache=pretty good for gaming, not for other stuff
    mobo: asus h67-m sata6=sata6(6gb/s) is 2X the transfer speed of a Sata2(3gb/s) he doesn't even reach sata2 speeds
    hard disk: seagate 500gb=should add a SSD as a boot drive and make that one for storage agree on that one, raid10 for other stuff
    RAM: kingston ddr3 2gb(x2)=at least 6GB for gaming dual channel memory - 8GB
    Graphics card: Nvidia GTS 450 extreme 1024mb=no problem would have preferred the 5770 but they're about the same
    PSU: andyson silent g 480W=1KW yup, 480W is kinda little...
    DVD rewriter: samsung SH223=make it a ASUS blu-ray reader/writer imo not worth getting a blu-ray unit, how many blu-rays is he even gonna ever use?
    Case: Some ATX Tower case with 2 fans.=make is a good case with 3 or more fans, or result to watercooling I wouldn't go for LC with such a build, a decent case + replacements for stock heatsinks / fans would help with some OCing though
