about 4 months ago i talked about a new pc
custom made. this is what i have so far.
what am i building for, a mid range pc for gamming
and a little programming work.

any ideas for am3 mobo

processor something that will handle
deus ex 3 - bf3

my current os is xp corporate but i hear
bf3 needs vista or 7

memory im told 1.5v is best
with a am3 board im assuming 1333 or 1066 ?
4 gig stick minimum for now until i get w/7

case 50 quid tops might stretch to 60
what do u guys think of coolermaster cases.

nvidia g/card what would run bf3 or deus ex 3
reasonably

and a power supply. ideas would help

parts ive already marked down

Seagate 500GB SATA III
( £ 30.00 Inc VAT )

Sony Optiarc AD-5260S 24x DVD±RW
£14.99

Look at the gaming PC suggestions on here. That will give all the info you need. 4GB should be plenty for windows 7 to start with though. You probably won't need any more than that for quite some time.
