Will this system build work?

[n0ob1]

I'm currently building a PC for a friend and was wondering if there's going to be any compatibility issues between the components. I've built a couple of pc's in the past and think I've pretty much covered everything. He has a budget of £500 so I'm trying to get the best performance for as little as possible. Let me know what you guys think.

I already have these and selling them for a reduced price:
Antec 900 Gamers Case - £30
ATI Radeon HD 4870 - £60

He already has everything else such as the monitor and other peripherals. I have a copy of Vista ultimate 64-bit which I'm planning on using as-well. Just a bit worried that I've sacrificed too much quality to get a lower price. Thanks for your help

Get a different power supply. Youre risking too much with that one.

 

[n0ob1]

Thanks for your reply, finding it difficult finding a PSU in the right price range, trying to find a decent one for round about £30. What wattage would you recommend?

 

[patonb]

Same wattage or even lower. but a different more reliable brand. I run sli 260s on a 700W.

You might want to think about vspending a bit more on it.

I'd recommend this if you can swing it:

Corsair CX 500W ATX Power Supply [] Power Supplies 48.99

deffinatly dont skimp on a power supply. i know it may seem like it does a simple job, but you want to get a good quality name brand powersupply and save your slf the head aches later on.

 

[n0ob1]

Ok thanks for your help, I'll go ahead and buy that PSU then doubt I'll find anything better out there

 

[Sean W.]

looks much better.

only other thing i can think of is try to find combo deals of these same parts to shave the price down a little bit.

other than that, go for it.

I was doing a bit more searching....... AND

You're going to need a 4 pin to 6pin adapter... seems Corsair skimped on them...

I've just maybe changed my mind sorry, 4 pounds more but modular, better for the 900, and has more connectors including 2 pci-e cables.

Antec Basiq Plus 550W Modular Power Supply [] Power Supplies Antec

Or, maybe this coolmaster, though i don't know much on them, but a 5 year warrenty.
Cooler Master GX 550W Power Supply [RS-550-ACAA-E3] Power Supplies

But the Corsair will work too, just need the adaptor and daisy chain your fans....

For the record i was alittle sleepy when i posted the first one and forgot about the 900 and its fans.
