Need a new pooter

February 20th, 2009 Posted in Hardware, Toys

My laptop has decided it wants to kill itself. In addition to having heating issues and freezing all the time, last night it started making lovely ticking noises while reading sections of the hard drive.

So I’ve priced up the following desktop to replace it

Motherboard – Asus P6T Deluxe

CPU – i7 920

CPU Cooler – Noctua U12P

RAM – 3x 1Gig DDR3 Corsair

HDD – 4 x 500G WD

PSU – CoolerMaster 600W

Video – MSI GF9800GTX+

$2039

Additionally, as I need to visit clients I’m tossing on an EEE S101 because it looks sexy. I’ve found that for $877.

Total Price $2916
