ah ok, well my case will take 275mm, but thats the absolute max, so I need to try and find the length of the GTX somehow. What do you think of the GTS anyway James? Which do you have? BFG? XFX?
you may need to refresh the screen as I've re-used some of the image names on photobucket, the motherboard is now the EVGA one and the memory is 1066.
Its probably not worth going for the EVGA board thinking about it now though, if I'm not going to do SLI, then I may as well get a different...
ok chaps, thanks for the advice. I'm currently looking at (for the base system):
which comes out at £722.03
with:
at £1013.29
or with:
at £1093.19
or with:
at £1121.52
so it depends on money at the end of the month.
i think this is the same board (cheaper) :

but the memory speeds are 1200 / 800 / 667 / 533 not 1066?
I think I may just go with the single gfx card then, but upgrade to a mobo that can support 1066 memory and get 2gb in...
ok, so far I've got :
£818.02
Pretty happy with that, just got one query though, the mb as far as I can see is SLI'able, so is the PSU, is it worth me going down the SLI route? Do I need to buy SLI'able cards? or do they all have the ability? Are two SLI cards effectively...
yeah, I'm pretty much decided on Core 2 Duo E6600 and Gigabyte DS4 mb. I just need to decide which of the following to get :
2GB RAM (800MHz)
SATA 250GB/320GB drive
Graphics Card (but quite like this one) : http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=545087
PSU (my...
I've got a limited edition (Blue) Coolermaster Wavemaster (about £100), its awesome. So I don't need one, I've also got 2 x 17" TFTs and a wireless MS keyb and mouse and decent speakers. So its a £1000 for components really.
Basically my computer (P4) has finally given up, I think its the motherboard but its running an AGP card and a IDE HDD, so the whole lot is going to need to be changed. I'm basically after as good as I can get for the money with preferably a decent graphics card and 2GB memory, I need everything...
not that road, its speed camera sign central, but no speed cameras, I had my Origin B2 on the whole time and it didn't come on once, although there was a camera van in one of the villages after the road. I can't believe we haven't done this road on the NW late night run, its seriously, seriously...
I know, it took far too long, but it was raining outside which meant I had to do it in the garage and then turn the car around to do the otherside, I also had to wait for the rain to stop etc etc before turning it back around. But well worth it now. I've waxed it with Megs #13 is it? something...
Used it last night for the first time, took me 3 hours to apply it to the whole car, but was very impressed by the results, it has made a world of difference to the swirl marks on the car and has given the car a deeper colour. I got the car out of the garage just now to take a look at it under...
