hey!

I've been reading a lot of reviews of all the components and I think it's a nice one. What do you think?

Case: Silverstone Sugo Sg01 100-120€ (a bit expensive,but I think it is a good one)
Power source tacens valeo pro 600 105€
Mobo Gigabyte GA-965GM-S2 95€
Intel Core2 duo E6600 260€
Memory Mushkin 2x1GB EM2-6400 170€
Graphics card: I have no idea. I'm going to decide at last minute :rolleyes: +-200€
Hdd Seagate 320Gb 16 sata 80€
dvd: Lg 30€
Sound card: someone cheap 30€
Display lg panoramic 19'' L194WT 200€

Total 1300€ all included

(sorry about the € prices, but i'm in europe)

What do you think? suggestions are admitted
Thanks!
 
i dont know if this applies to you but april 22nd is supposed to be the Intel Price cuts

i know the E6600 is going from $300 to $180 in the US at least... if you can wait 2 weeks why not save some money

dont bother with a cheap sound card... just use onboard
 
Looks decent to me. In fact I was going to go with that motherboard if I knew the F-I90HD was going to have as many problems as it does. May still get one if this board ends up dying on me.

But I do agree on waiting for the price cuts. Price cuts = happiness for all.
 
I would think the prices are universal although there may be a couple dollars difference between USA and European countries due to taxes or rate exchange but not enough to make a big difference. Everyone should benefit from the price cuts. :D
 
System looks good.
But come on man! don't let the video card go till the last minute! Go for something shiny!
 
If you are going to buy a cheap soundcard I would not bother, just use the onboard audio, it is more than passable.

Put the money towards the video card. Consider the 640MB 8800GTS. It will have some legs.
 
axe the cheap sound card and put it towards a decent video card. since you only have a 19" monitor, you may be able to get away with the 8800gts 320mb opposed to the 640mb version. in the end its all up to you.
