I think 512 will be enough to go with for now,as for what you buy next as long as its the same speed the pc will run with the settings of the lowest step so you could just bung a desent 512 stick at and you should be ok,you going with mesh then?

Sure you can, el-cheapo ultra high latency will-fail-any-day-now type of RAM. :dozey:

PMSL Richard I am tempted to run it on 512mb and then pay over odds though once I am paid again and shove in 1gb of Crucial Ballistic. If I can get it in DDR400, or be nice to the girlfriend and get 150 more of her for the 1gb.

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

For the performance increase you will get you may as well shove 512 of kingston in along what you get ,then you can wine dine and ...(romance) your g.f with the rest :LOL:

Thanks all for your advice and no doubt I will be back again once its all here and I need help settling it in.

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

Good luck with it m8. Double check the delivery time and address with MESH as they are really good at s*rewing that stuff up :D

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

Is it really worth upgrading from the 6600 if I want to play the latest games? Is the x700 pro much better than it? I'm gonna order from Mesh and just wondered.

Andrew, how long is it til they deliver it? Wondering when mine will arrive when I order!

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

I have not been told yet I have given payment details and I am awaiting them confirming payment and delivery details, they have made sure in the email I have got that delivery times are estimated due to there extensive testing it can be later ( of which I am supposed to get a check list of what they have checked )

I will inform you asap I have confirmation details thanks guys you rock.

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

Well they have been open today as per there site says and my order went in around 7pm last night, but no e-mail confirmation of payment taken or anything so I assume I now have to wait, until Monday before payment is took.

Whats my chances of it arriving sometime next week?

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

Can you check your account online just in case :) you never know the email may have got lost in cyberspace :D

Re: 550 Quid for a new gaming pc
 

True but I have not got a order number yet, if you wish pm me your msn and I could talk more in depth could use some advice in case they muck me about.
