Rate my Build? - Mark Webber - 05-02-2011
I am currently Building a Computer which I will use for some Serious Multitasking. What do you guys think of this Build?
Gigabyte PH67-UD3-B3 LGA1155 Motherboard
Intel Core i5 Sandy Bridge 2500K (OC'ing to around 4.2GHz)
8GB Corsair Vengeance (4x2GB) 1866MHz RAM
Gigabyte GTX 470 1.5GB HD Graphics Card
700W XFX PSU
2TB Western Digital Caviar Green 7200RPM HD
60GB OCZ SSD
DVD-RW Drive
Card-Reader
The total Cost is around £600. Opinions?

Im going to rate this 9,5. This is a very nice setup.
It is compared to what I have:
i5 2500K (Clocked to 4,10)
8GB 1600Mhz
P67A-GD65(B3)
560GTX (SLI)
120GB OCZ SSD
1TB HDD
Nice setup though

Very decent, I must say. It's pretty impressive that you're overclocking to 4.2GHz where it runs at only 3.3Ghz by default. What extra cooling are you using to keep the temperature under control?
8/10

Very nice setup. I have to build me a new one too next time. Yours has a very low price and build is good enough for all things i think. 9/10
RE: Rate my Build? - apoC - 05-03-2011
Not bad, 9.5/10
RE: Rate my Build? - Do0ks - 05-03-2011
Very decent setup. 9/10, 8GB ram is to much but really you can't have enough. Don't overclock your processor. It will last twice as long. Big HD, If you fill that you owe me 0.50 USD. I don't know much about exchange rates but £600 sounds cheep as hell. Something like that in USD would be right around $1500.

I would say 8/10. I like your way of thinking , but i am in love with AMD Phenoms.
RE: Rate my Build? - Xzotic - 05-04-2011
Probably a 7-8/10. Pretty nice setup, could be better though.
RE: Rate my Build? - Splodge0007 - 05-04-2011
Pay the extra £50 on getting the i7. Then change the ram to G.Skill ripsaws. It'll be a lot better.
