Too late, caught this just before heading out. Any more talk of illegal acts will result in banning with extreme prejudice.

Haha very intelligent I must say! Yeah I am a student so I will get it there thanks!

No you won't. Certainly not if you want to continue posting in this forum (or indeed any other on Boards)...

Any other places to get cheap for non students?

Only thing I can think of for non-students is to get it a little cheaper off HWVS by buying the German version, then downloading the English version DVD and using the product key off the German version to activate it. Only applies if you're buying other stuff from HWVS though.

I said ''Yeah I am a student so I will get it there thanks!,''

Which means I will get it where it is cheap for €45! Why would I pirate it when I can get a real hard copy for little money?

If I was going to pirate it, do you really think I would ask ''Any other places to get cheap for non students?''
If I wanted it free I would have stated free.

Thank you for the help on where to get it. I will look into it. :cool:

Is that legal? Are you entitled to the english download if you purchase the german version?

Yeah it's legal. Your really buying the licence key for Windows which is compatible with any other language of the same version. So if you buy Home Premium from hwvs then download the Home Premium English version and your activation key will work perfectly.

Sorry about the misunderstanding, I saw the non-students bit and then read the previous sentence wrong

Another question I need to ask... Do these systems give off a loud sound?

Monotype

How loud worries you? They wouldn't be quiet or like an aeroplane either. I think there's just two fans in the asgard. They're alright for a €30 case. Depending on the board, you may be able to control these and the CPU fan.
If you wanted a quieter system, you could get quieter case fans and get a different CPU heatsink. These more expensive cases with sound dampening, but I doubt that you'd like to bear that cost.

Well I dont want it to sound like a hoover or a microwave!

The back one has a control switch and you can control the front one with speedfan, if your motherboard supports it. Speedfan can be a little finicky but it works well when set up.

If I put an extra.. About 30 euro to my graphics card, what could I get?

Next one up from the 6850 is the 6870.
The cheapest one is €142 (also out of stock at the moment).
