Power supply is a piece of junk.

I agree.... Don't get a cheap PSU its the most important part of your computer, it powers everything. If your looking for something in the 700+ watts range is recommend.... the reviews on all these are pretty top notch

Corsair HX or AX series
Seasonic x750
Cougar S700 700W
Seasonic X-750, Link#2
Silverstone Strider Plus 750W
Thermaltake Toughpower Grand 750W

GTS 450 1GB - the shop you chosen too expensive...

DVD Drive - get sata

HDD - Western Digital Caviar Green is slow. Samsung F3 is faster.

Thanks for all of the advice
But would 520w be high enough for the system?

 

[Drenlin]

Easily. That Antec is a great unit.

You guys might want to cross-check overclockers.co.uk and scan.co.uk to see if there are better options available for any of that.

By the way, when he said "grab a cheap one" about the case, he only meant price-wise. Those two are great cases.

Have to say though, this is a great deal on a CM 690 II:

Would the system recommended by dasiymtc be able to run win 7 pro 64 bit?
Sorry about all the questions first time builder!

Yes

 

[cheeseman126]

Sorry one last question is the nvidia gts 450 I have been looking at any good?

 

[Drenlin]

Yes, it is. It won't quite keep up with your CPU in gaming, so it will definitely be your bottleneck, but it's not a bad card.

 

[cheeseman126]

Sorry one last small question what ram capacity is recomended for a win 7 pro 64bit

 

[Drenlin]

2x2GB is good :good:

Or 2x4GB if you have any use for it.

 

[cheeseman126]

Sorry one last question lol, could I plug in a Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro HDMI and Analog Editing Card - PCI Express, along with my Nvidia GTS 450 Into the Asus P8P67 which daisy mtc recomended. (need the capture card for video editing)

 

[maroon1]

If you want you could downgrade the CPU to i5 2400, and buy GTX 460 768MB instead of GTS 450

Graphic cards are more important for gaming

Keep the 450, overclock it. Don't forget the thermal paste.
