Okay guys, following advice, I have bought the Dell 2408WFP! Bought it 2nd hand but new in the box for 300EUR, really glad I have it. It's an awesome monitor I must say.

Thanks, but I think I'm going with the OCZ Vertex 60GB, heard a lot of positive stuff about it (including great benchmarks) :-D.

Thanks for the advice :-). I didn't really know what to go for with the mobo, but I have found out that the GigaByte GA-X58-UD5 is pretty much suited for my needs. Do you think it would fit?

Hi all, What kind of mobo would you recommend for my new pc, with the following parts: i7 920 (that's socket 1366 and DDR3) 2x TripleX Dominator 6GB (3x2GB) RAM Radeon 5870HD video card 2 HDD 1 SSD possible a second video card in the future Thanks in advance! Jesper

The Netherlands :-).

Thanks for your expert opinions :-). I'll use my SSD only for the OS and stuff like that then, and store the rest on my HDD. I'm considering to get Acronis True Image, it seems like a good product. Is there any reason for going with 1TB instead of 500GB? I really don't need a full 1000 gigs of...

Hmm okay, I think I'm gonna go with the normal one, the extra 50$ aren't really worth it.

Okay, thanks for the advice :-). I checked some reviews too and noticed that other people found it quite cramped as well, but I didn't think it was that bad. So, I've been checking out the Cooler Master MC 690, and I think it's really suited for what I need. However, I also saw there was an...

Thanks for the advice, but why would RAID 0 be bad? I've got a backup disk aswell.

Hi all, I'm assembling a new PC (first time), and I am now at the point where I am very mucht in doubt about which HDD to get. I'm getting an SSD-drive (OCZ Vertex 60GB) for the OS and applications, I already have a WD Caviar Blue 500GB which I'm going to use for back-up, but now I need...

Thanks for the great information! I've been doing some research, and am now leaning towards the Antec Nine Hundred Two (902). Do you think that would be suited for a Core i7 920, Radeon 5870 HD 1GB, 12GB RAM PC with 3 HDDs, 1 SSD and 2-3 optical drives? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the advice. What would somebody need a full-tower for then?

Hi everyone, What casing would be able to fit 3 HDD 3.5" and 1 SSD 2.5" in a 3.5" frame? Motherboard format ATX. The casing should also be good for some nice cooling, as it's a pretty high-end setup (core i7 920, radeon 5870 HD). I don't want to pay an unnessacarily high price for a...

Thanks for your advice. What would be the price range for a mid-range 24"-26" monitor?

Hi all, I'm going to assemble a pc for the first time, and I've almost got my full configuration settled. Now, I have come to a point where I want to think about what input-/output-parts I'm going to get, and one of the main things for that is of course the monitor. I've been looking...
