How does this look for a budget performance machine?

[FragTek]

I just got a call from a friend that wants me to build up a new computer for him and has told me he doesn't want to spend over $1000 for a new system.

After about 15 minutes on Newegg this is what I've come up with. Lemme know if everything looks ok or if something should be swapped out that's better than what I have in the last thats around the same price, stay WITHIN REASON.

Take a look and let me know what you think about that setup. This guy isn't an overclocker but I do plan to try and squeeze at least an extra 200mhz out of it before releasing it to him.

Lemme know folks :wavey:

yepp looks good, your friend will be extremely happy with that, you should be able to squeeze out more than 200mhz?

Well the case isn't going to offer shit for airflow so I don't know what processor temps are going to look like... I'll try and get as much from it as I can, but I'm shooting for 200.

whats with the extra psu?

 

[bloodthirst]

the psu that comes with the case is a fucking peice of shit to be honest it would be stupid to use it

I'd never in my right mind use any PSU that comes pre-installed in a case... You're likely to blow some shit up for have a nuclear meltdown. lol
