| 409654 | 2005-12-09 09:21:00 | OK I'm looking at the Logitech MX518 for mouse and the Logitech Media Elite Keyboard. Am buying the case tomorrow, but still can't decide between the Tsunami and Soprano, any recommendations? Cheers. |

| 409655 | 2005-12-09 09:33:00 | Aluminum is better, but I'd go for the one I liked the look of. Just checked out your mouse - very nice. |

| 409656 | 2005-12-09 09:38:00 | Yeh they look very similar, however the Tsunami is aluminium so I think I'll go for that. Yea I liked the look of the MX500 better, but it turned out to be the older version of the MX518. |

| 409657 | 2005-12-09 10:32:00 | Questions. What is the opinion on building your own, opposed to a package deal like www.playtech.co.nz which I am looking at? Are those playtech packages good value? I'm thinking it is time for me to get a new pc as well. I have nearly done it a few times, but just couldn't scrape up the money (student). Now I have left school, and have a full time job :) I think I deserve a new pc (well... want. I don't know how I could deserve it). I have also noticed many comments on overclocking a 3200+ up to a 3800+ or something. I know nothing about overclocking, but it looks like it could save a good deal of money, I think I might try it! What things do I have to look out for if I want to overclock? Better quality products? I have heard you need very expensive ram? |

| 409660 | 2005-12-09 15:32:00 | DVDrw tech has been refined enough that pretty much any drive you buy will be good. I'm still going to buy Liteon when I upgrade my current DVD writer because they always make good quality optical drives at a reasonable cost. They will probably be the first to get an affordable AND reliable HDDVD or blueray drive out there. | Greven (91) | ||
| 409661 | 2005-12-09 19:26:00 | Yea I liked the look of the MX500 better, but it turned out to be the older version of the MX518. Show me the difference. I have an MX500, I got my son an MX518. We can't tell... And he likes his look - I liked the colours on the 500s. |

Negatives: It can make your system unstable. It can increase the heat. It shortens its lifespan. Positives: How long do you keep a CPU for anyway? But I'm with Rob99 - just buy a 3800.... |

| 409663 | 2005-12-10 05:06:00 | I've ordered in the Thermaltake Tsunami and the Logitech MX500 mouse. The only thing I need now is a decent keyboard, any suggestions? | JMoore (9352) | ||
