Hi Digital Solitude

I have 4 sticks of RAM 16GB
do you think the 500 watt PSU will be ok?

Thanks

Yeah 500w is loads for that build I would think. I'll make certain later on for you

GPU

Z97 Motherboard

i7

CPU Cooler

Total is 695 delivered. The PSU is fine, allows for a bigger GPU with a substantial overclock and several hard drives and case fans

I haven't a clue about that to be honest with you

RoyalMarine · 06-04-2015 1:08pm

hmm I don't have option for Paypal either.

Digital Solitude · 06-04-2015 1:13pm

Seen something about the value of your order for PayPal?

I used PayPal for a €709 order in Jan and it was fine, I know yours is something similar Dun. Could ye test with with orders above and below 500 or 700?

I'll do it myself and report findings later on if ye can't

Digital Solitude · 06-04-2015 3:14pm

Tested €350 and €740, followed by €2,600 and it still allowed me to use Paypal, so I genuinely haven't a clue why it won't work
