This for real?

Actually, thats prolly a bit cheaper than what you could build it for, but its got a pretty low powered power supply(400W).
 
That is not what i am referring to, its the fact that it is only a 400W max load, pop in say, a 140W quad, between the gpu and cpu your up to 290W, that means you only have around 70W on the +12v rail for the rest of the system. Would leave alot less room to upgrade than say, a 500W xclio or ocz power supply.
 
I was just reffering to its ability to powering up the given system. You are right about upgradeablity thought. You wont be able to upgrade anything with that psu :)

Heh, you prolly wouldnt even want to overclock with that psu, as that cpu itself has like a 95W tdp, using the power supply calculator, its saying 380W for that system...
 
That has a 400w psu ?? Thats bad for that graphics card on that setup, year u can build one for similar price, lol...
 
well considering that in parts alone it comes out to be $494 Dollars Which is equivalent to $300 British Pounds. That's Not a bad deal.
 
The graphics card is the latest money can buy right?

Forget that question, what I want to know is

1) Can this PC play Crysis, Company of Heroes, etc. etc.?

2) The soundcard seems to be a cheap piece of .... will that give me problems playing games?

3) Can I overclock that CPU? Processor? I can't remember which one can be overclocked.

4) It doesn't say the graphics card is dedicated so when playing games is that going to kick me in the balls?

The GTS 250 is the new version of the 9800GTX+, so yes, it's technically a new card.

Yes

No

Probably not because they don't spec the board, so depending on the manufacturer, the BIOS may not have overclocking options.

The GTS 250 is a discreet card, it's not an embedded gpu. It's a great card and you'll have no issues playing games

I just noticed that the OS is an additional charge.
 
So will this psu be okay (im not buying this system) but nvida say you need a minimum 450w supply, I have just brought a OCZ 500w and I would be worried about powering this card even im worried about an Ati 4870 even.
