Firstly you didnt say what this build is for or any info like that but I have made a few changes here for you. I changed GPUs but I think they are fairly similar, dont really know?? I upgraded your mobo & CPU. From what I have read, people may say that you probably wont need a 750watt psu. Also if you can get windows from software4students or somewhere like that you could save 40 quid and put it some where else. Also people seem to recomend this HDD which is only 1tb but faster spindle speed.
Just my thoughts, Im sure someone who knows what there talking about will be along soon to sort you out. :cool:

That's actually a much better build, MRTULES, nice job.

The reason the 1TB is recommended so much is that it's a big drive, but it's also one of the fastest 1TB drives out there. Generally, green drives don't make that good a boot drive, as they're quite slow.

I'd go for his build OP, subbing in the Spinpoint for the WD Green. I'd also wait a week or so, as there's a new line of GPUs on the way out, and they'll drop 6870 prices, and potentially offer a more powerful alternative for the same price.

it only works with windows vista

Serephucus

I've wondered if you're trolling or not, with your past few posts, and that one is especially warrant of consideration. What only work with Vista?

the hdd that they recommended on the site it sais that it only works wit windows vista

Serephucus

That's just marketing, and also completely wrong. It'll work with absolutely any operating system.

Edit: Ah, I see. That's just some stupid certification MS gave to say it'll work with Vista; that's not to say it won't work with anything else. It's back from the days when Vista first launched with a slew of incompatibility problems.

I was thinking the same.
