Hey dudes,
I'm a relative noob about to embark on his first build. I have been the happy owner of an XPS Gen 4 with X850XT for about the last 4-5yrs but wish start anew with something that's easier to upgrade (couldn't get an X1900 working coz i couldn't upgrade the PSU) in future. I've managed this as BF2 and CoH are my staples.
As this worked out pretty good for me throughout the years, it has reaffirmed my view that if your gonna do something, do it right the first time. So can anyone advise if this is a good/bad or indifferent set-up for the cash. I hadn't set a limit on spending as such but wouldn't hope to spend much more.
P.S. I'm from Ireland so shipping is a big issue for sourcing parts.
Really appreciate any help.
