Title: Roph's cheap PC build
Post by: Roph on February 07, 2009, 03:17:44 PM
This is my theoretical build  =o

Motherboard: ASUS P5QL SE (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/152576) - budget, but probably the best budget one out there. Could still achieve a nice overclock or upgrade and keep this in the future.

CPU: Intel Pentium e5200 (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148715) - the best bang for buck, and overclocks like a dream. For whatever reason, this is currently cheaper than the much weaker e2xxx series, even though it is more powerful.

Graphics Card: Radeon 4670 (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/152940) - Beats the old 3850 while still built on 55nm and doesn't need an external power connector, great =o

Hard Drive: WD 500GB (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/124228) - Chose this because it's on special offer.

Power Supply: Coolermaster 460W (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/150596) - The biggest rookie mistake in building PCs is getting the cheapest possible power supply - you do not do it. Every single component relies on being fed clean stable power.

Memory: Kingston 2GB stick (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/143805) - Will be slower running in single channel with 1 stick opposed to dual channel on 2, but again, I'm a begger at this point ;9

(Yes, the box for the video card is bigger than the box for the motherboard. They could fit like 5 cards in it if they wanted)

lol, decent onboard video
lol, nvidia chipset

Also wow, the 4670 while about as powerful as a 3850 still only has the framebuffer bandwidth of my old 6800 ultra, which is 32gb/s. Yet I can fraps a busy 3d scene at 720p =o <3 ;-;

Since ATI are gay about custom resolutions (I like to run 1440x1080, in between 1280x960 / 1600x1200, I've decided to make the jump to 16x12 =o

Also, Asus chick is the hottest:

Roph's penis is rock solid and heart touching.

Nice build.
