Hi
I emailed a few months ago about building a new PC which was very helpful,
thanks. Except that when I built it, my friend's PC blew-up so I ended up
selling it to him. Last night my PC blew up and I could probably fix it;
it's either a new psu or motherboard fuse but as it's about 5 years old I'm
thinking I should get something new-ish i.e. new motherboard, cpu, memory,
case and gfx card. Are there any companies that sell this kind of thing as
a bundle for an extra saving. Aria and Ebuyer don't seem to and I had a bad
experience with DABS a few years ago so won't go with them for such a large
order.
On my budget (approx 300 quid) this cpu looks reasonable:
<http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/CPUs+%2F+Processors/Intel/Core+2+Duo/Intel+Core+2+Duo+E8200+2.6GHz+%28Retail+775%29+?productId=36101>
Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 2.6GHz (Retail 775)
I'm going for the retail to cut down on the faffy work so also looking for
a nice spacious atx case.
There are better but I was hoping to get an amd for about 60 quid so 90-odd
quid for an intel duo 2 seems ok. Anyone got this and can recommend a good
motherboard for about 60/70 quid?
Any recommendations? (yes I have a macbook too but this is the family/work
computer)
Thanks
Jason
