• A Build worth of ~1,200€ ?
    21 replies, posted
Yeah so, I'm probably going to build my own this time and I thought if you people could help me get the maximum firepower out of this 1,200€ budget. (Give or take) I live in Finland, so newegg is out of question. Also I've sorted things kinda.. Long-lasting Shit - Tower Case! (1 Decade too far fetched? :v:) - I dunno? Shit that needs to be upgraded every now and then - CPU, GPU, RAM, etc? I mean, mostly just a case which is good and so on, that I can keep upgrading the shit around it. (I wouldn't wanna upgrade tower case, seems a bit weird) What I'm planning to buy here is: Case, Power-thingy, Motherboard, Graphics Card, Processor, Harddrives and the likes, CD/BLURAY-players or something, maybe RAM. I also need a monitor, Windows 7(cheapest?), and that's it. I buy new keyboard from somewhere here so I can feel them actually. I already own a good mouse. Now I got some DDR2 memory sticks worth of 4GB RAM in my old/broken PC, and the rest is pretty out-dated like dual core intel (4400something?) and so on. So I guess I just throw most of those things at waterbirds. So, any suggestions? Might wanna start with a good international pc hardware store that ships to Finland, I don't know any.. [editline]03:24PM[/editline] Oh and the games I play are most definitely Team Fortress 2 (This must be able to run smooth on maxi), and with 1,200€ worth PC I guess I'll try MW2 and maybe Battlefield. Also with that kinda PC I'll be picking any cool enough for me looking singleplayer game. :p Programs I use are mostly Web Browser, Media shit like vlan/winamp, uTorrent. That kinda bullshit. [editline]03:26PM[/editline] I don't like suggestions that are rated Disagree and Dumb.

I come in this thread to see for some european e-shops, but all I see is nothing.
Hehe timezones are fun. sigh still no replies on-topic. [editline]03:06PM[/editline] [QUOTE=SSBMX;20517474]Maybe he is from China were all of it is one timezone finland is just a coverup =O[/QUOTE] Or maybe not? And I'm the one getting banned for "Why reply?".. Woopdidoo.
Bump. Please, someone? Also, I was browsing these prebuilt computers "designated" for gaming. I know you people don't like prebuilts, but how does this seems for example? Ati Radeon 5850 1GB DX11 Intel Core i7 860 2.8GHz Noctua NH-U12P SE2 Processor Cooler Intel P55 mobo, USB 3.0 and Sata 6GB/s! (I don't know about that 6GB/s thingy) 8GB 1333MHz DDR 3 1000Gb Sata Hard drive Some burning DVD player Fractal Desing Define R2 + 650W Newton power-thingy That costs 1299euros. It's not newegg, and that's the price. Is it horribly overpriced? A no go? [editline]06:55PM[/editline] Also, this one goes for 1450euros. Ati Radeon 5970 2GB DX11 AMD Phenom 2 965 3.4GHz AMD 790 mobo 8GB 1333MHz DDR 3 1000Gb Sata harddrive Some DVD player Fractal Desing Define R2 + 650W Newton power [editline]06:58PM[/editline] They seem all in all pretty good computers. But the price is what it is.
It has good specs but the price is a bit over what it should be. But either way it has a i7 and i7's are pretty.
Those are actually pretty good, if a bit over priced. Get 4GB RAM instead of 8 if you can.
It says it's possible to change the specs if I just call there and so on. But why? I mean, I'm getting win7 anyway, 64bit I guess, so it supports up to 8gb of ram at least. Besides, I wouldn't need to worry about upgrading RAM. [editline]07:10PM[/editline] Also, which one? 1200 one or 1400 one?
Need a screen? [editline]09:38PM[/editline] PM me your email, I'll send a wishlist thing to it. It's something I whipped up quickly, no screen. Costs at 1,205€ + shipping.

DDR3 will only get cheaper, meaning a cheap and VERY easy upgrade in the future. If you buy 8 now, over 4GB of it is going to sit there completely unused. 4GB is more than enough for the average user.
