    .. went to overclockers on friday and picked up some bits and bobs (pain in the arse to find tho, its a small unit tucked away in the middle of a tunnel!.. if you go you’l see what i mean!!) Very helpful people there.

    Took n0ms advice and got:

    Gigabyte D3 MB
    2GB GeIL PC2-6400C4 DDR2
    Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB SATA-II 16MB Cache

    also got

    E6600 C2D
    EVGA GeForce 8800 GTS SuperClocked 320MB (no point in me getting anything better, and am gonna use EVGAs ‘Step up’ program to upgrade in a few months)
    Antec 900 case (i know it got a lot of bad press but i dont mind it!… not sure bout havin PSU at the bottom tho!)

    Still aint got it running properly yet ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

    Looks a bit weedy compared to Fluffys spec now tho ๐Ÿ˜ฅ ๐Ÿ˜ฅ ๐Ÿ˜ฅ ๐Ÿ˜ฅ ๐Ÿ™‚

    one of the best things to do Fluff is go here http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/

    Well, got back from the comp. fair on Sunday….. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME! ๐Ÿ‘ฟ A LOAD OF OVERPRICED CRAP. People must go there thinkin ‘OOOO i bet everything will be REALLY cheap… you know, like a car boot sale or summat!’ I swear i saw a stall holder rubbing his hands together, just waitin for some nob to come along and buy his 7300LE for รƒฦ’ร†โ€™รƒยขรขโ€šยฌร…ยกรƒฦ’รขโ‚ฌลกรƒโ€šร‚ยฃ55.00.

    There were hardly any C2D CPU’s, let alone sytems, it was all low end AMD stuff.

    2 hours of my life and รƒฦ’ร†โ€™รƒยขรขโ€šยฌร…ยกรƒฦ’รขโ‚ฌลกรƒโ€šร‚ยฃ3.00 ill never get back!! ๐Ÿ‘ฟ ๐Ÿ‘ฟ ๐Ÿ‘ฟ

    Now i know why i stopped going.

    Cheers for all the info!

    Pretty sure the PSU is a Hiper HPU-4B580 Type R 580W Modular ATX2.2

    I was lookin at the entry level C2D and overclocking em… doesnt seem too tricky!

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/INTEL-CORE-2-DUO-6400-2-GB-DDR2-NVIDIA-7950GT-GRAFIX_W0QQitemZ170083873052QQihZ007QQcategoryZ179QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item170083873052

    This one seemed ok but the MB looks a bit duff + you just know the mem, hdd will be the cheapest of the cheap.

    Has a decent Gfx card tho….

    So, is it better to go for a slightly lower spec CPU with quality/branded components than a higher spec CPU with cheapo MB, mem. etc.? Hmm…. have i just answered my own question!?!

    Just realised ….thats a LONG link!!

    Oh as for Overclockers I would probably go and pick up anything ordered, only live 20 odd miles away!

    the film with ben affleck

    Daredevil.. that was a dire film.

    Thought the first Batman was good, the rest were just plain crap (apart from Batman begins which was mint. Said it before somewhere… Christian Bale is a legend!)

    Does The Crow count as a comic film (was a graphic novel)? One of my favourite fims of all time! 8)
