My parents have said they are gonna buy me a new PC for my Birthday. I decided cyberpower seems to be a good place to get one from and here is a configuration I have come up with.
Quote
Lights & Illumination: 12" COLD CATHODE NEON LIGHT (GREEN COLOR)
Extra Case Fan Upgrade: Default Case Fan
Cyberpower Noise Reduction Technology: None The options don't seem to be that expensive, but is it worth getting? Anything compared to my current PC is gonna sound silent anyway...
Internal Expansion: NONE
CPU: (Quad-Core)Intel® Core™ i7 930 @ 2.80GHz 8 MB cache LGA1366
Overclocking Service: No Overclocking
Cooling Fan: INTEL LGA1366 CERTIFIED CPU FAN & HEATSINK I presume this is sufficient.
MOTHERBOARD: (3-Way SLI Support) MSI X58 Pro-e Intel X58 Chipset CrossFire DDR3 Mainboard Again, I presume this is sufficient and will accommodate all the other options I have selected?
MEMORY: 6GB (3x2GB) PC10666 DDR3/1333mhz Triple Channel Memory
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 1GB 16X PCI Express I'm probably not gonna be doing a huge amount of gaming, but I will be working with 3D models. This card is also 3D capable, which might come in handy, one day. From what I can see this also has 2x DVI slots (which can be converted to HDMI with a dongle, if need be)
VIDEO CARD 2: None, or On-Board Integrated Graphics
Video Card 3: None, or On-Board Integrated Graphics
Dedicated PhysX Card: None
Power Supply Upgrade: 700 Watts Power Supplies This is the recommended power supply for what I have selected.
Hard Drive: 500GB SATA-II 3.0Gb/s 16MB Cache HDD (1TB (500GBx2) Raid 0 Extreme Performance)
Data Hard Drive: NONE
Hard Drive Cooler: None Is this needed?
Optical Drive: Samsung 22X DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW DRIVE DUAL LAYER (Black Color)
Optical Drive 2: NONE
SOUND: Creative Labs SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio 24-BIT PCI Sound Card
Network: ONBOARD 10/100 NETWORK CARD
Flash Media Reader/Writer: INTERNAL 52in1 Flash Media Reader/Writer (BLACK COLOR)
Operating System: Microsoft® Windows® 7 Home Premium (64-bit Edition)
Other than the points mentioned above, anything else I've missed? Any recommendations?
