need monster build

[JRatcliffe]

mm i like the idea of OCing a E6600

 

[saltynay]

you can overclock a q6600 though :s you can over clock any processor the quad core would also get you slightly longer long evity

 

[khan008]

go for my build. and check out Overclockers UK

 

[saltynay]

yeah but with khans build change the processor, the blu ray, and get a lower psu Wattage

 

[khan008]

i got the blu ray for free =) take a look at this website

Intel Core 2 DUO LGA775 E6600 2.40GHz Retail / Asus P5W DH Deluxe / 2GB Corsair XMS2-6400C4 DDR2 Dual Channel Kit - Bundle

 

[saltynay]

how did you manage to get a free blu-ray drive???

 

[khan008]

my friend works for Liteon, so we did a bit of swapping and the rest followed lol

 

[Vaanish]

dont get the striker extreme though it is overpriced.

 

[khan008]

striker extreme is brilliant

but notworth it, sorry i'm late to the party, slept in.... but i would go with Khan's and kobe's build and call it a day:

q6600 (get this bad boy to 3.0 ghz)
8800gtx by eVGA (might wanna do step-up and upgrade to the 8900, most ppl here might dothat)
MSI p6n sli-fi
5 X seagate barracuda 500gb (with ur 2 GB happiness going )
Arctic Freezer Pro 7
4 GB RAM by G-Skill
fit a new monior in this budget, cuz having a 19 incher with an 8800 gtx is overkill, or step-down to the gts 320MB
