    I chose the motherboard because its supports the 1066MHz memory (and future speeds) but also supports SLI and Quad Core CPUs. The graphics card I chose because I've had a faultess XFX card before and it seemed the one to go for.

    I'm finding the Seagate quite noisy actually (underload), but its positioned low in the case infront of vent openings to the front of the case so its exposing some of the noise.

    interesting, so i take it that's overclocked to 2.6ghz? I'm going to try mine to 3ghz or 3.2ghz when I'm up to speed with things. The good thing is though, that the mobo supports future bus speeds, quad core and SLI, so there are plenty of easy options for future upgrades.

    its just scored 5.3 on the Windows Vista scoring system, as I understand it the best you can have is 5.9, so pretty chuffed, for some reason it wouldn't do it yesterday. The graphics card scored 5.9.

    Ffs!!! New Graphics Card Help

    i'd imagine your supposed to connect the molex (white connections) to your PSU and then the black 6 pin connector into the graphics card.

    bought a 197

    IMHO the 197 is a better looking car, its just not fast enough and at the time of ordering my Megane there weren't any tasty options available for the 197.

    bought a 197

    don't know mate, apparently he has reduced his payments.

    bought a 197

    think he is trying to save more money by reducing his payments, that's why he's losing the 225.
