Hi,
IÂ’m about to purchase a new system which IÂ’m wanting to build myself. Just wanted to get some feedback as to what people think, check everything is compatible and see if anyone had any other suggestions before i take the plunge!
I will be using the machine for Architectual Visualisation – hi res stills + animations (AutoCAD, Studio MAX / VIZ) video compilation (After Effects) and 2D graphics (Photoshop).
My spec is as follows:
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Winchester 90nm (Socket 939) - Retail (CP-097-AM)
Asus A8N-SLi Deluxe nForce4 SLi (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard (MB-087-AS)
Corsair 512MB DDR XMS3200C2PT Platinum CAS2 (MY-007-CS) x 2
Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Plus NCQ 120GB ST3120827AS SATA 8MB Cache - OEM (HD-004-SE)
Hiper Triple Fan 525W ATX2.2 PSU (CA-001-HP)
Above conponents come at £496 from overclockers
I will also purchase:
a PCI – Express graphics card (not sure which one yet, any suggestions welcome roundabout the £100 mark)
