December 17, 201114 yr The HDD is slow. A Spinpoint F3 is not much more expensive (7 pounds)The case too could be better.My try, with a much better case, PSU and motherboard, the foundations of any solid, futureproof build
December 17, 201114 yr Not to muddy the waters, but I've owned two and they've been great, as was the Corsair TX I had. Guess which cost me less? The OCZ. My friend has had his (identical to mine) for nearly three years. They've all provided clean power as well.Same here.... Had one for 2 years solid. Runs clean, cool and quiet.

A Spinpoint F3 is not much more expensive (7 pounds)The case too could be better.My try, with a much better case, PSU and motherboard, the foundations of any solid, futureproof build That system looks very tasty. Any idea how the i5 compares to the i7? Are we taking just a few fps hit in FSX? In theory I could splash the cash and get the system above but with the i7 from the one I quoted if it would be really worth it?Andy S

You could not get better guidance than what he just showed you.... AND...Merry Christmas!Kind regards,
