Hi all!
As my computer broke I am going to buy a new one. I have already discussed the parts with a friend, but would still like a second opinion on it. Especially the power supply, as I think it might not be enough (I might want to add another video card in the future).
What are you going to use the PC for?
Main use of the PC will be gaming, I would like to run new games at a good fps and nice grapics. Think of games as BF3.
How much is your budget?
My budget is around 700 euros (about $965). Though I'd really like to keep this as low as possible.
Where are you located? (a.k.a. fill out your profile)
I live in The Netherlands, in Rotterdam.
Are you willing to buy online?
Most certainly, if that will get me the lowest price.
Are you going to re-use any parts from an earlier build?
The parts I want to re-use are my old PC's hard drive and CD/DVD-ROM Player.
Do you need other peripherals like a monitor, keyboard and mouse, among others?
Nope, have all that. Just the computer itself.
Have you already bought any parts?
I haven't bought any parts yet.
Do you have an Operating System (OS)?
I have Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit. So I guess I will have to upgrade to Win7 64-bit
Will you need any aftermarket cooling, such as a CPU\GPU cooler or a watercooling setup?
I would like to have an aftermarket (CPU) cooler, because they seem to be pretty cheap and I might want to OC my CPU (I think around 4GHz should be reasonable, not so experienced in overclocking )
My parts so far are here: http://tweakers.net/gallery/425878?wish_id=208468#tab:wenslijst
Might get a 500W TR2 power supply from the US, cheaper there anyway
I might be able to ship from the US for free if some things are cheaper, though not sure how it will work with taxes on importing stuff.
