Got this coming on weds

E4400
The x2 5000 may have been a better buy but I was too lazy to research motherboards when I know the Asrock is pretty good. The E2xxx cpu is pretty much neck & neck and is way cheaper, but I didnt find that out til after I ordered. I was gonna go higher spec but Id rather spend money on more interesting things.

Asrock motherboard
I wanna keep my 6600gt, sure it stinks in most games but I aint buying a new one til the next lot of dx10s come out.

2x 1gb Kingston RAM PC5300, whatever.

£15 PSU
If it blows Im £15 down - just buy another without worring about rmas. I got a spare one anyway..


2x 320gb Hitachi HDDs
I aint never buying hard drives in singles again. The chances of 2 dying at the same time are pretty slim. Gonna have em in normal none-raid mode and get an app to sort out file copying.


£307 inc del, some cables, a bluetooth dongle and 25x dvds.

Buy a decent PSU and you dont need to even think about it blowing up.  :-)

Could use Synctoy too I guess.
