Right. I've read the above two posts (thank you for posting) and decided to go with Torch's advice and get an E8400 with DDR2 rather than an i5 with DDR3. You both seem to think that the 5850 would be the best GPU for what I want to do so I am also going to try and get my hands on one of those.
Here is what I am looking at:
Memory: Scan.co.uk: TWIN2X2048-8500C5D - 2GB (2x1GB) Corsair TwinX DDR2 XMS2 Dominator, PC2-8500 (1066), 240 Pin, Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 5
PSU: Scan.co.uk: 500W Silverstone Strider ST50F Silent 120mm Fan Dual +12V, 80%+ Eff'
CPU: Scan.co.uk: BX80570E8400A - Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, S775, Wolfdale, 3 GHz, 1333MHz FSB, 6MB Cache, 9x Ratio, 65W, Retail
Motherboard: Scan.co.uk: Asus P5Q Pro Turbo, Intel P45, S775, PCI-E 2.0(x16 ...
CPU Cooler: Scan.co.uk: Scan.co.uk - Award winning supplier, performance hardware systems
Need advice on this. I couldn't find the exact ones you linked to above, Torch, but do you think this will do the job?
Case: NZXT Lexa S, Black Mid Tower Case w/o PSU - Scan.co.uk
Case includes 3 x 120mm, 1 x 140mm.
GPU: Scan.co.uk: GV-R585D5-1GD-B - 1GB Gigabyte HD 5850, PCI-E 2.0(x16), 4000MHz GDDR5, GPU 725MHz, 1440 Cores, DP/ 2x DL DVI-I/ HDMI
Any suggestions? Ideas?
