Nice except for the PSU, Get an enermax/tagan/Seasonic PSU instead, And a 500watt Liberty or a 620watt liberty is loads for that system.

And the 7900gtx is horrendously priced:eek:

Why not get a 7900gt they are nearly as good and half the price;)

what you think of it now

overclockers.co.uk -> exact same machine but with a 64 Pro instead of the Zalman. Comes to €1,155.65 Incl Delivery and VAT. Maybe you can afford the GTX or a sweet TFT?

EDIT: Forgot mouse and keyboard, €140 for a MX518 and a nice G15 Keyboard

If your going dual core go for an Opteron.

awhir

the opteron seems to be a bit cheaper then the 3800 x2 but you can get the x2 on 2.8 with this pc.

Could, Opterons seem to be far better oc'ers that X2's, i can get mine to 2.9 possibly more its just my RAM that limiting me.
