Hello All,
I'm new here, drawn to this great forum by the SFF community. I'm planning a new SFF build and seeking advice, and [H] had the only SFF community I could find. My goal for this computer is for it to be fast (I'm coming from a Q6600 and SLI'd 9600GSOs), but also quiet, and hopefully run a lot cooler than my last rig (turned my room into a sauna ) The reason I'm selling my computer is I want something smaller, cooler, and quieter.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Mainly web browsing, but also some light gaming
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
650ish, and yes
3) Where do you live?
North Carolina
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very specific.
CPU, MB, Case, PSU, RAM, HSF
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
One of the 9600GSOs, a 200gb WD disk (more than enough for my uses)
6) Will you be overclocking?
probably some
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
22" Dell 1680x1050
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
About 2 weeks
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
Mini-ITX, a full PCI-E X16 slot
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license?
Yes
Currently I'm looking at the Sugo SG05 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163149) and the Zotac 9300 Mini ITX-WiFi (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813500022), and probably an E8400 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037), but I may consider a quad. Everything else is still up in the air, and all suggestions will be researched
