Title: New PC time
Post by: Bastet on August 14, 2012, 03:31:37 PM
Hi Gents,

Been a long while since i played with any of you, but heres hoping you all still remember me :)

I have been thinking about upgrading my PC on a budget of around 500-750 euros. This does not need to include the case and vid card (i have a koolance LQ case & GTX 480 card).

The other bits are currently way out of date. Does anyone have a good suggestion what mobo/cpu/ram/HDD to buy? Based on past experience i would prefer intel cpu's over amd.

Cheers and thanks,
Bastet

Nop, i can get a local retailer to order me what ever i want. I am just not up to date enough on this stuff to know what goes together well (and there is enough that absolutely doesnt go together well)
