So i've a topic on Tomshardware about the best parts and i'm just looking for a second opinion really http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/299184-13-500%C2#t2219361 Are these components the best i can get with 500 or more? any suggestions?
Already got windows 7 paid for and from looking at the all arounder it has quite a few things i dont really need so i could up it a little bit. from reading issue 86 of Custom PC I've been looking at the I5 760 (seems to be cheaper than the mentioned 750 from what ive researched) The Corsair XMS3 PC3 - 12800 the Antec TruePower TP -650 ATI Radeon HD5770 (Theres a new range, might be better?) And I've tried looking at the GA-P55M-UD2 mentioned in the magazine but i can't seem to find it in the quick time i've had to look. My question is, is there anything better since the release of this magazine? Because all I really need is a PSU, GPU, RAM, MOBO and CPU, everything else is accounted for. PS I am looking at overclocking. Edit: Also I can wait for awhile if anything drastically better or cheaper/better is coming.
It's going to be a budget stretch to get an i5 build at £500 i5-760 - linky MSI P55A-G55 - linky or Asus P7P55D-E - linky Some 2x2GB 1600MHz memory - linky Antec TP-650 - linky 6850 (because 6870 is breaks your budget) - linky or GTX 460 - linky Thermaltake Frio (you forgot a cooler if you're going to OC) - linky or Gelid Tranquillo - linky Turns out to be about £550
