I am wondering if the stock PSU will do? And is the case any good (cooling and sound) Anything else I should add/remove as I plan to do a bit of OC'ing. I should probably add some fans and a cpu cooler for that then. Also, will the 8800GTS power the 22" lcd though games at a fairly decent FPS? ( I will upgrading from a 5200FX )

DO NOT GET YOUR KEYBOARD FROM HWV... unless you like all your symbols messed up and german letters all over your keyboard. Seriously I made this mistake thinking "sure I never look at my keyboard when typing" which is true for letters, but its headwrecking for symbols "ok so the * is actually ( and the + is actually ~..."

Also do you really need a labelflash DVD-RW??? who even uses that??? Other than that everything else looks fine.

Re-map your keyboard layout then noob

Surely he should get the 8800GTX?? It will last much longer seeing as very soon very demanding DX10 games will be coming out. Not many people will be playing them much higher than 1280x1024 I can imagine, even with an GTX... I myself regret getting the GTS. I have only a 19'' monitor and even at 12x10 I can't say I experience over the top framerates... Very good, but it doesnt show much headroom for upcoming, more advanced games...

Then again I know nothin as you all know. I just have a feeling about this:p

Yeah I would go for that case had been looking at them and want one but
a) I'v heard alot of horror stories about buying from dabs.ie
b) It doesn't come with a power supply so that could make it to over €200 wiht the case and PSU.

Yeah I noticed that after I posted this, I had been told before but it completely went out of my head, Do you (or everyone else) think it would be worth waiting for the new G15 to come out?
I dont need labelflash but I would like it

Yeah I was thinking that, but if I would have to get a GTX I would have to go back to the 19" widescreen becuase of the price, and then having the GTX wont really be needed and a bit of a waste.


Thanks everyon, I hope I can get this in time for Gamecon XII but I doubt it.

well i think the Vat in germany is only 7% so thats why allout of german sites are cheaper .

Eh? German VAT was 16% until the end of last year and is now 19%. UK is 17.5%, but the carriage costs are silly. UK prices aren't too bad if you're within the UK.

I think it's cheap to do a German order from Ireland because the low carriage costs.

7% Lower German VAT rate is on food and agricutural stuff.
