I've fumbled around inside a couple of cases and it seems a bit like meccano - get a few bits and bolt or plug together. Is it really this easy? yep...more of the challenge may come in deciding what to get ![]() |

I was thinking about the cheapest of everything, so if it does go wrong I won't be too bothered. Fortunately Sony don't make computer parts so there's no chance of me overspending
![]() Now, where did I put that link for dabs.com ![]() |

That's pretty much it. I run some Adobe s/ware for pictures and video but any new machine I build will be primarily for the 'fun' of building - and crunching of course

wonders where the hardware master and thread originator has wandered off to...
much funner putting together your own rig...and you aren't stuck with proprietary parts if something should ever need replacing/upgrading...insert other reasons here that i've somehow lost the mood to go into... as i was saying, i hope vaio will step in, he's pretty good at finding deals too, especially as he's on the same side of the pond as you. whatcha looking at getting? would be good to know to make sure things are compatible... ![]() |
