Review my Build please

TheDriver

Hi All,
Going to do a new build, generally use it for heavy photoshop and video editing as well as general usage.

AMD X6 1055T
Asus M4A87TD/usb3 (has sata3 6gb/s and usb3)
8Gb corsair RAM
Asus GeForce 210 512MB PCI-Express 2.0 x16 HDMI w/LP (Silent)
SATA 3 2Tb Seagate
Antec 2450P case
iyama 24" monitor
Should work out at about 800 yoyos?

Was going with the 1090T but cut it back infavour of more RAM, corsair was only 45 euro for 4gb and monitor has HDMI connection from PC.

looking good but where you ordering from?

Jonny7

Nice little build, if you spend a little more you can get the 2500K

it obliterates the AMD six core to put it mildly

TheDriver

thanks jonny7 but it adds on a nice amount onto the price. Buying from either dabs or amazon, price is about the same so whichever has the items in stock.

Jonny7

no prob

check hardwareversand.de .. v low prices and bulk order is 30 quid delivery regardless.. 20 euro and they'll even build it for you

IrishMetalhead

yup as jonny said checkout hardwareversand.de as they are by far the cheapest when it comes to ordering full systems even with the €30 shipping rate added on but theres only one downside they only accept banktransfers

Also are you buying an os to go with this?

TheDriver

I have Windows 7 free at work for employees home computers thankfully.
That website looks very nice, are they ok to deal with regarding bank transfers?

IrishMetalhead

should be majority of the users on here have baught from there many times.
btw you putting this thing together yourself?

TheDriver

I was going to but that website is tad cheaper and for 20 bucks, its hardly worth my while to be honest.
Had a look at i5 and the x6 seems better for the money, don't want to keep adding money on and on unless it was really worth it to be honest. My 2004 P4 is still running well but could do with some new toys...........

TheDriver

just to update, I order my stuff from hardwareversand on Tues night, money was received Thurs morning, assembled and shipped Thurs night and on its way to me now.
Went for:
1055T, Asus MA47 EVO motherboard (usb3 and SATA3), 2TB SATA 3 drive, 8 Gb Corsair RAM and a standard silent graphics card (Its not for gaming). Plus DVD drive and card reader. Came to just under 600 yoyos assembled and deliver, I have my own OS Win7 64 Bit from work.

TheDriver

JUst to let ye know I received my system, all professionally packaged and looking well built. One hint: Don't buy a keyboard as its a blasted German one
