After over 5 years of the same PC, I have finally upgraded, at less than 1/3 the cost of the original PC. (See Best box here thread)

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 940 BE
RAM: 8GB Kingston DDR2 @800MHz
GPU: Galaxy GTX260P
DVD: LG Bluray/HD-DVD reader, DVD/CD burner
PSU: added a Thermaltake Power Express 450W VGA PSU to supplement my relatively small PSU of 430W
HDD: 1TB + one or two from the old PC

Also just wanted to see if anyone still vists this forum:p

Hey guys, its been a long time scince ive been to a lan acctualy havent even taken my new pc to a lan yet! but my 8800GTS is out fo date anyways.

So in other words im after an upgrade.

Im currently running a uATX pc

asus mainboard of some kind cant remeber
Intel Core 2 duo E6750
4 gig of corsiar value select DD2 memory 667
80gig sata/320sata and a few external drives
dvd burner IDE
8800GTS 320 mg version albatron
and a asus micro ATAX case and TT 430true power unit

I dont want to spend loads and will not be needing my old pc when i upgrade but will be keeping the parts as spares or to build a new media center as i gave my old one to a friend.

so heres what i was thinking

Also for sale Creative giga works THX 7.1 speakers $75
All just over 2 years old and in good condition

I Recently Purchased an ASUS VW222U 22" Widescreed LCD, First thing i noticed was how small it was, I mean i jsut wasted $335 on this thing my 22" CRT's are better, i think the LCD is going to become a TV for my media center instead now. It was absolute Krapp! Heres the good part it shipped to me with 4 green 'stuck'(bright dots) pixels in a cluster, looked like a green spotlight shining into your face white trying to play Games!!!!
