Could you link to this fan please?

18-09-2008, 16:34

have done in post above. A lot of people including myself have had success with the AC97 its not expensive but does a good job

terryw · 18-09-2008, 16:40

Thanks-also do you have a link to the 4850 please.

So after editing the spec (graphics card, fan & modo) do you think its up to scratch?

DocDutch · 18-09-2008, 17:25

looks like a good rig you got there, with regards to the PSU I would go for a modular system as its easier on the airflow in the system, also I would go for Vista 64bit instead of 32.

18-09-2008, 18:27

Only problem with that though is X64 utilises more ram I would want at least 4 gig if that was the way I was going

http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?WebProductId=427440 still cheap though

DocDutch · 18-09-2008, 19:14

DocDutch · 18-09-2008, 19:34
