fallenphoenix1986 603 Posted April 15, 2009 (edited) Hi, I've got a big juicy tax rebate heading my way and my current comp is on its last legs, was wondering if anyone more enlightened than I would mind having a look at the following system just incase I'm off the mark for what I need. Its designed with FSX in mind, however I'd like a second opinion. http://www.wired2fire.co.uk/build.php?systype=14&fsb=30 I made a few changes myself after reading other similar threads (PSU, cooling, HD, optical 2, and card reader). PSU Thermaltake Toughpower 650W Pro Core2 Duo E8400 6MB Cache CS Thermaltake Golden Orb Cooler GC BFG GeForce 9800 GXT+ OC 512MB PCIE Me 4GB Corsair DDR2 800MHz C5 Twin2X MB Asus P5Q Pro Socket 775 HD 250GB Cavair SE16 SATA 300 OD1 DVD-Rom X16 OD2 DVD-RW 20X RSt All in 1 Card Reader USB 2.0 Vista Home Basic it now comes in at: £951.71 I appreciate any insight you may have.

JediMaster 451 Posted April 15, 2009 I take it you will be loading Vista in 64-bit? Otherwise you're just wasting some of that 4GB of RAM. You could probably get an E8600 and a GTX 260 for only a little more and you'll see a noticeable difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fallenphoenix1986 603 Posted April 22, 2009 thanks, yeah It would be in 64 Bit. Sent them an Email enquiring about upgrading to the E8600 since it isnt on the options list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
