Talking Planning build for my best friend.
To celebrate that I built my pc even though I brought it to pc world to get it fixed because of their stupid usb powered speakers I decided to build a pc for my best friend sophie! heres the rig.

Cpu: Intel Core 2 Duo Quad Q6600
Ram: 2048mb Ram 6400CL5
GPU: X2 EVGA 8800GTS 640mb
HDD: 500GB HDD
PSU: 850WATT
LCD: 20.1inch 1680X1050

It costs 1,500 Euros. ( don't worry her mum gave me the money for me to build it for her) What do think?

I like Abit MOBOs but if your planning to overclock this MOBO isn't very good apparantley you can't over clock very far with it.
