(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); What I have:

AMD Phenom II x6 1055T @ 3.8Ghz
You must login or register to view this content.
4GB DDR3 1600Mhz RAM
Corsair A50 Cooling
PC Case


What I need:

1TB+ Hard Drive
Good 600W+ Power Supply (Intended for gaming!)


Also, how many fans on my case do I need, because I've got the CPU cooler, then 3 more, but it's really loud and I want to minimize the noise. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Smile

2000th post!

Nah, they can end up destroying your PC components. You can get 700w ones for £20 but they are really bad.

Not gaming on it yet. I can get another 4GB really cheap so I'll get it later.

NZXT M59 is the way to go, also stick some Xilence 120mm fans w/ blue LEDs and a blue neon, it will look sick HappyD

4GB is fine for gaming, but upgrading to 8GB in a couple months or so would be a good idea. I have a couple ideas for you PSU but what is your budget? Do you need a modular one? Do you need a SLI or Crossfire support? This is the HDD I would recommend You must login or register to view this content. . I would up your budget on the case for a better one if you plan on overclocking, here is may suggestion for you budget right now: You must login or register to view this content. .

Won't need Crossfire or SLI support, I don't really know what modular/non-modular are, I've already got a case except the fans are pretty loud and I can't really do anything with Newegg links as I'm in the UK. Thanks for the hard drive suggestion, I think I'm just going to get it.

Oh, and I've already overclocked another 1Ghz on my 1055T. Smile
