You know a while back I made a thread about building a system and wondering on specs?
Its going to be used for emulating/dance pad/rendering/ and well....everything else, so its going to be moved a bit around.
Well, I have the specs for it. Its as you can see by my spec in my sig, a lot more powerful, and should last me ages.
Plus, it'll be mine, since I'm paying for it, so finally, I'll have a PC to myself.
Anyway, these are the specs. I may change a few things if you think somethings better, etc
Powersupply: 600watt SilverPower model based on a Custom PC report (Can't find it yet)
Case: Antec 900 : About £60?
Motherboard: Abit motherboard IP35 Pro

CPU: Core 2 DUO E6600
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(14434)Intel-CPU-Core-2-Duo-E6600-240GHz-1066FSB.aspx
Memory: Crucial Ballistix DDR2 PC2 6400 2GB
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(18453)Crucial-2GB-Kit-2x1GB-Ballistix-Memory-DDR2.aspx
Graphics: Geforce 8800GTS 320MB
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(17450)Sparkle-GF-8800-GTS-SLI-320MB-DDR3-PCIE-DVI.aspx
Sound: Sound Blaster X-FI Extreme Music:
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(14190)Creative-Soundblaster-XFi-Series-Extreme.aspx
Hard Drive: 2x 320GB Baracuda SATA2: (I'll run in RAID 1)
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(13888)320GB-Seagate-Barracuda-SATA-II-300-Hard.aspx
DVD: NEC DVD Writer:
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/(14880)NEC-Optiarc-AD7170A0B-Black-18x-DVD-RWRAM.aspx
I need a monitor, so I'm thinking of a 19 inch 1280x1024 model, which I'll find soon, somewhere, along with the PSU, and the Antec case.
Without those, it comes to £706.73 Inc. vat, but will expect it to hit in the 800's when complete.
Any changes you'd make?
EDIT: I'm hoping to overclock the processor, as I know it can reach 3GHZ, so I'll aim for that if I can
