    Ok, i allready know what i want, just not which one(s) :p

    im looking for suggestions! (i currently have accounts on www.overclockers.co.uk & www.microdirect.co.uk)

    Im planning to get a new:

    - power supply (currently using the one that came with the case!)
    >>> Needs Sata power connectors + loads of Molex plugs :p
    >>>Support for PCI-e would be usefull for future upgrades

    was thinking about one of theese http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Hiper.html

    -More RAM, Currently have 512 MB DDR 3200 (2x 256 MB)
    >>> how much more? Im playing Source games (HL2, CS etc) + Guild wars, just looking a little extra 'ooompf' (as lost Coast recomends 1GB, so im guessing all the HDR enabled games are going to need 1 GB+)

    -a nice big comfy chair, looking to spend <=45 on this :D

    My computa specs are in the link on your left :p

    *edit* I have £150 in total, but the longer i wait the more of that cash is going to be spent on drink, fags, food etc *edit*

    hi,


    i have the blue, 580w hiper psu, its very very nice, and i built my friends pc a few weeks ago and used the type r one, (the same).

    the cables are braided, uv reactive, support pci express, up to 4 sata drives, and 8 other devices, trust me, its an excellent psu, with looks to match!

    ok, the PSU has been choosen :p

    Can anyone recomend a supply for a REALLY BIG COMFY chair? the sort that managers have (Big back, massive arm rest's etc). im not wanting to spend tooo much (and i know u must be able to get them cheaper than argos, cos there a rip off on everything!)

    Ram's another question, i have 2 spare slots so i will buy ram after everything else (as my computa does run good as it is)

    Whatever you do about the chair, I really suggest you dont order it online. I'd go to some local store that sells that sort of stuff and try em out. It'd really suck to get a chair based on what someone else has found comfortable.

    No joke. The worl'd most comfortable chair for a 2 meter tall person would probably be close to unusable for a 1,6 meter tall person. (unless its the marshmallow kind!)

    I just thought of this. Why not go to yard sales? I have a chair in my room so comfortable I fall asleep in it and miss school sometimes. It cost $8.
