    I Challenge YOU!

    Yeah, that looks good, find out prices and then if you have money left you could either put it towards a case you prefer or a better graphics card. Also I like the new ... er new pic, sorry the word has just slipped my mind, Computa rep, when did you get it? gOdMan's still pwns most though!

    Post Your Computers here !

    My first build! After a month since I first ordered all the component I have finally built it. I have had a pretty bad time ordering my pc. The ram prices went up by £30, the Toughpower PS were all out of stock, the X2 accelero went out of stock after I ordered it from scan so I had to wait, I...

    £1000 to spend... Where does it go?

    I really don't think that offer is worth it. I would build your own, however you might want to wait until december before making your choice as there will be new components out and the prices will probably have dropped. So I'm not going to give advice at the moment.

    Suggestions on a new gaming system

    The reason no one is replying to this post is that no one can be bothered to click on all the links and view each product so could you either make a wishlist or better just state the model directly in your post. I'm filling in for Shadowduck who repeats a similar message about twice a week.

    upgrade advice :)

    Yeah I'm in the same position I bought a secondhand X1900XTX and want to fit a new cooler to it so I'm going to have to take the old one off. I'll tell how it goes as soon as I get all my components. There other option with the PS is choose another one and buy extension cables, I don't know...

    upgrade advice :)

    Why did you choose to the PS as it's the only component not from scan, if you can try and get it all from the same place. Scan has a Hiper 580W modular PS (black) for around £60, which seems better to me. Oh just remembered the Hiper PS has problems with the P180. :? -Haven't heard much about...

    Its all to much.. what do I choose

    That's like waving a red flag to a bull in this forum :lol: but there have been a few previous post on good prebuilt machines. Basically, if you have the time then building your own would be cheaper (normally around 10% cheaper).

    What's your favorite computer magazine??

    As I live in Britain the best here is Computer shopper, however I recently went to oz and checked out a few of theirs and I thought PC Authority was excellent. I didn't think that Custom PC was that good, as about half of it is just custom cases that people have built. The main thing I look for...

    Its all to much.. what do I choose

    This feels a little weird giving advice to someone who has already built their own pc and I haven't yet, but I think I know enough to give some advice. SLI is where two Nvidia cards are used, Crossfire being the ATI equivelent. PCIE is the slot which most new graphics cards will use. So you...

    What does a UV sensor measures or detects???

    Ok, I had a look at your other post. Mondoman suggested that you were probably a student and this was a project set for you. I'm guessing that he was right as you are still asking. For anyone else this was Serendipity's other post...

    What does a UV sensor measures or detects???

    Maybe you should be more specific and give us some more data. eg where is the uv sensor or is it like a handheld device?

    Why? Is the AMD chipset going to be around for longer than the Intel?
