Hi.

I'm putting together a PC online (overclockers.co.uk) that I'm am definatelly going to get within the next month or two.

I just wondered if anyone could have a look through these components and alert me if you immediatelly see anything that isn't directly compatible or if I am missing something (cables etc.)

These are the parts:

------------------------------------------------


I already have an optical drive, an IEC lead to power the computer and an operating system, however, are there any other cables or anything I will need to connect anything here? ie. the hard drives, motherboard? Or are these cables included within the items?

I don't expect anyone to go through every piece of hardware, just give me a rough idea of what I need to get, and if anything definatelly will not work. I just don't want to order all this and find out I need to spend a whole load more, or find out that something isn't compatible. I have already checked myself for compatability and everything seems fine, to me.



Thanks a lot.
Dan.

It's better but more expensive, I didn't want to go over my budget. However, I'm doing HD video editing, putting the computer through a lot, do you think the GameXStream would be worth it?

I'll get it if it's worth it, as I'm using the computer for heavy processing.
