Evening All,
I've started choosing bits and bobs for my first build and was just after some advice and opinions on what I should and should not go for?
1. Case Wise, I'm looking at the cooler master silencio rc-550 @ £65
2. PSU - coolmaster GX-650 @ £52
3. Cooler - corsair hydro series h60 @ £50
4. Processor - i5-2500k @ £168 or the i7-2600k @ £240
5. Motherboard - gigabit ga-z68p-ds3 @ £76 or the asus p8z68-v lx @ £80
6. Graphics Card - EVGA GeForce GTX 560 @ £140
7. RAM - corsair vengenance 8gb 1866Mhz @ £45
8. SSD - OCZ 120GB vertex plus series 2.5" @ £100
9. Hard Drive - 2tb samsung spinpoint @ £55
10. Blu-ray writer?????? LG, Pioneer, Sony
The computer is going to be used by my Niece for her photography and graphic design projects, then by Me for gaming and finally by my Brother for business.
What do you guys reckon? Not too sure on what processor, motherboard or cd/dvd/blu-ray reader/writer to go for and any further advice and suggestions would be much appreciated and welcomed.
Thanks in advance for your time, help and advice.
