After a little research this is what I got. Consider that in Italy there’s not a huge choice of parts and prices are rather inflated.
- Case Tacens Algeo (case is important because the computer needs to survive the heat, this one gets a 250x250 fan that hopefully is up to the task)
- Enermax ATX EPR525AWT (525W) PRO82+ (this should be a decent power supply, hoping it lasts a while, +12V1: 25A / +12V2: 25A / +12V3: 25A)
- Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Box
- Asus P5Q PRO (the cheap version of the latest chipset, P48)
- Dimm 2X2GB DDR2 PC2-6400 Corsair C4 XMS2 DHX (some decent RAM at decent price. I could get higher speed versions but it’s the easiest part to upgrade later)
- Seagate Barracuda 500GB SATA-II
- Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB (not much to say here, I guess. Right now it’s like a forced choice)
Anything you would change in there?
