Did think about the 6300, but was leaning more towards the 8320. Off topic but is the 270x worth the extra money ? (Edited as I was being an idiot and its been a long day)

Hi, Just finished my first build and looking at getting a new monitor. Wondering if anyone has any experience with ASUS VE247H ? And if it is any good for gaming or if anyone can suggest a better but similarly priced monitor...

Cheers for the help. Didn't know Seasonic makes both PSU types, pretty handy info cheers.

Hi, Just in the process of finalising my first build, have narrowed it down to two PSU's, the SeaSonic SS-620GM2 EVO edition and XFX P1-650X-XXB9. Both are about 200 watts above what my system needs but am leaving my self enough head room for the future. Had a look at the PSU tier list and...

USAFRet : My PC M/B has SATA II. Is it worth getting an SSD with SATA II ? Also is the Kingston v300 any good ? As I'm only going to use it as a boot drive and add few programs onto it ( i.e. word, GIMP, nitro pdf etc) not sure I need full 240 as I have a 1 TB hard drive already installed.

I'm looking at getting an SSD to revive my ageing computer. Only issue is haven't much of a clue what to go for. My budget is about 80 to 90 pounds. I've had a look at some drives from Samsung, Kingston and sandisk. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations or can point in the right...
