Please give me some advise on building a PC

zy · 14th Jun 2007, 11:51 PM

Core 2 Duo E6600
1gb Kingston DDR800 x 2
Asus P5B-Plus ( should i go for a P35 )
Leadtek 8800GTS 320MB (or maybe eVGA)
Lite-On Lightscribe drive
Cooler Master 500W ( enough? )

note : not my PC

get the gigabyte P35..the cheaper SKU (not dq6 or DS4).

zy · 15th Jun 2007, 05:47 AM

GA-P35-DS3P ?
or
GA-P35-DS3R ?

btw, do you think a 500W power supply is enough

?

If you are not going to do SLI or load it up with many hard drives, then you can just settle for 400-450W.

Yeah, the 8800 GTS 320MB is a good choice.

good choice but not mine

Adrian Wong · 16th Jun 2007, 02:18 AM
