Components - Price Checker..

[basepointdesignz]

Hi,

I want to upgrade my girlfriend's pc and saw these components from Novatech..

Motherboard: Intel Dual Core E2160 1GB DDR2 Ram Intel 945GZ Motherboard with Heatsink & Fan - £98.99
(

http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?MBB-E21GB)..

RAM: 1GB 240Pin 667MHz DDR2 PC5400 RAM DIMM 1.8V - £14.69
(

http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.jsp?RAM-67/1GB)..

GPU: Novatech GeForce 8600GT SLI 512MB GDDR2 HDTV Dual DVI/TVO PCI-E - £48.17
(

http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.jsp?NOV-86GT5)..

Total: £161.85


Does anyone know where i might be able get these any cheaper? Or better bits for the same money? Or do these prices seem pretty good?

I only chose that graphics card because its in the list of the compatible graphics cards for Second Life..

The motherboard, as you can see, comes with heatsink & fan (novatech generic probably) and only 1GB RAM..

Any ideas?


Cheers,

Paul

Yup sorry (not 8500GT)....8600GT 512mb looks good for the price although it is a DDR2 version and not a faster DDR3 part.

256mb version with DDR3 memory is quicker than the 512mb version with DDR2.

In general good parts from Martin as always. You will be better served to buy separate pieces and combine them yourself as per his list.
