Hey guys
I am building a new PC and buying parts up to xmas.
I was wondering what you guys would suggest in terms of components focusing on:
Gaming primarily
Media recording and editing
General usage
The PC i have at the moment is very good still (i7 920, Asus P6T, Nvidia 670, 6gb dominator, watercooling)
but the opportunity to upgrade has arisen and this pc is over 2 years old so time for some updates!
I will be keeping the Pump from the watercooling, then Nvidia graphics card and the hard drivers. Everything else will be bought new.
What do you guys advise with a budget around £1000 perhaps a bit over if its worth it.
Key other requirements = quiet (hence why i use water) and a small as possible case whilst being able to have easy access and fit a double rad in for the CPU loop, i currently have a Cm Cosmos which is far to big!
Thanks for any advice, im out of the loop on pretty much everything apart from my graphics!
edit: had a look and heres my initial idea...also ive since swapped out the processor for the 'K' variant!
