Hard drive is a little small, but it's a decent spec. Should last you a good while before you need to tinker with it, especially if you don't download much.

Edited by: Super Whopper on 26/12/2008 14:21:36 You could have saved money had you built it yourself, or bought a better video card than that 9800GT. While it's not a bad card it certainly isn't fantastic either. Doesn't say which motherboard it is unfortunately, I hope it's the DS4 or better because those board love FSB!
If I removed one 320 from my system my entire PC would come to a standstill and I have 1x120, 2x320 and 1x500GB.

I actually looked into it, cause I am just really bored right now, and if he bought all the parts from Newegg, would be about $5 less. Of course this was assuming the most expensive motherboard and an upgrade version of Windows. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity. |

Err...yes it does. From the link in the OP:

If we look at this page we see that there're one, one, one, no more than one type of P45 motherboards. I would like to thank you for pointing out an obvious mistake to a Gigabyte lover.
I will repeat myself again, if it's the DS4 or better the sucker, paired with a good CPU will love FSB. I have never had the opportunity to explore the limits of my as my Q6600 can only go as far as 380 stable. I have stress tested the motherboard and it's capable of over 430MHz but, again, my CPU is limiting my overclock.

Only one thing wrong with it:
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium
If you throw that piece of crap out and install Ubuntu 8.10, you will actually experience what it feels like to have a fast operating system despite having all graphical effects enabled. Im running it as my main system and have Windows in VirtualBox. Think its been more than a month since I even started Windows in it. You start to appreciate Ubuntu more and more the more you learn how to set it up and configure it the way you want.
Also I dig its look.

It's a decent spec for a shop bought one.

I have 2x180 and 2x1tb and mine would also grind to a halt if I removed any one of them.

It's a good machine. Don't worry about hard drives - just add more as and when you need them. And a 9800GT should be able to handle any game at good settings and playable FPS.
It's just a shame about your forum signature. ____________________
