You could get all of that for much less than 1000.

shame about the hdd shortage i could of been able to squeeze an ssd into the budget but unfortunatly the hdd costs almost 3 times more then it's normal price =/

yup they'll all work grand with eachother altho i would suggest getting the pro co version of the the freezer 13 rather then the plain version as it's it's larger so it'll be alot more quieter and will keep your cpu alot cooler, other then that your as good as gold.
btw will ya need any help putting this together?

Edit: Just noticed the motherboard is now out of stock so if you want to order these right away i'd suggest getting this board instead:

Thinking of building my first PC too but don't really know much about it, do you need a sound card too to add to everything else in the list above? or does the sound come from the motherboard and will it be good quality for 5.1 speakers?

dooley1001

thanks for you reply i really appreciate it. SO im about to order with the new motherboard you said and cpu cooler just waiting for the confirm this will all work and i dont need anything else. Just out of curiosity i dont have a sound card do i need one?

IrishMetalhead

dooley1001

Dooley have you bought from hardware versand before?

I havn't heard of them till I read this thread their prices look really good was just wondering are they reliable do you know?

Im looking to buy the same parts to build a pc myself.

dooley1001

i honestly couldnt tell you im only building my first pc now

kippy

hardwareversand are reliable and one of the most linked to sites on this particular forum when it comes to components.

Spurs14

IrishMetalHead can you recommend a graphics card for about 90euro?

Would this fit ok with the rest of components?

dooley1001

IrishMetalhead

go ahead and order all seems grand

dooley1001

ordered now waiting on the delivery thanks for all the help guys

dooley1001

computer arrived i put it together connected it to a monitor and nothing it turns on works and sounds like its doing something but nothing happens i put in win 7 and all but nothing any ideas?

Monotype

Did you connect the monitor to the graphics card and not the onboard (actually I'm not sure how it works with Z68 boards, given that they switch, but try both)?

dooley1001

i used a differnt plug however cus it came with a 2 pin from germany but the thing is the one it came with is 16amp and in ireland we only get 13amp would that make a difference if so would a 2pin to 3 pin adapter work or am i far from the rpoblem

Serephucus

Any kettle-type lead is fine, they'll all work.

What did you plug into the monitor / computer to get the monitor working?

(A full-stop or two is always healthy as well.)

dooley1001

i plugged to computer into the monitor via vga.

The motherboard's VGA port or the Graphics card's VGA port? Does the motherboard speaker beep when you boot up the computer.

dooley1001

the graphic card vga port and no beep fans gpu fans spin however

partyatmygaff

It doesn't sound like its POSTing.

Try reseating the RAM.

dooley1001
