1126280 2010-08-10 07:00:00 i would swap out the samsung hdd for WD or seagate.

1126281 2010-08-10 07:10:00 It's a coolermaster 550W peak PSU.
Probably one of their eXtreme power ones.
It handles my setup nicely. Should do his too.

1126283 2010-08-10 07:35:00 Asus or Gigabyte motherboards seem to be highly rated on here gary67 (56)

Change the GPU to the 460 1Gb version

1126287 2010-08-10 10:47:00 Well I started out thinking about the ATI 5770, but the GTX 460 is better and not much more expensive. The 1GB is even more cash. HarKon (15926)
1126288 2010-08-10 11:46:00 Looked at playtech and their pre built system with similar parts is about same price. Anyone know much about them? HarKon (15926)
