  2. KIRO mouse looks good and would defiantly replace my current mouse which I got of eBay for £3.
  3. Amazing. This will most likely be the part list i use now. I will also upload images of it when its all put together like i said Christmas time is when i will buy it as a sort of Christmas gift to my self . from what i can Tell the PSU is Gold rated which is a bonus and its 550w and only £8 more than the one i picked. Also I looked up and found Yes the R9 380 is better than the Gtx 960 in most games and i don't think the two gigs of V-ram will be too much of a issue. Also May i ask why you changed the Wireless Adapter?. Thanks.
  4. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/dHKsGX So I would like to get a New PC replacing my current one that can do Gaming and also some things such as 3D modelling and video editing. However i am limited to £700 budget as that's how much I would be happy spending. For now its just a idea and I'm thinking of waiting till Christmas time till i actually buy it in which time so new parts may have come on or better deals. I would like my New pc to be a silent but it also needs to stay cool and play my games well enough at 60fps @1080p. I was thinking some people here might be able to give a few suggestions to the parts list.
  5. Sins i got my new case iv been having a display problem when i played a video. When i got my new case there was a bit of metal in the way of were the HDMI cable goes and so i managed to force it into the slot. However sins i done this i get the problem were my hole screen flashes and lines go across. However it only happens when i view a video such as YouTube or Windows Media player. so iv been thinking for ways to fix it. First i though i could try using one of my Mini Display port so i bought a adapter however when i plugged it in first it did not even work. So i used my second screen to get the screen properties open and i hit the detect button this did the trick however there were small white lines flickering all over the screen. So then i thought it was the Cable were it could have been bent on the end. But when the new cable arrived i plugged it into the adaptor and it did not even display. So i tested it on my laptop and it worked fine even the one i had before. So in a final attempt to fix the problem i bough a VGA splitter however it had to go through a DVI to VGA adaptor. But when i plugged both displays my main screen was at a very low resolution and the other simply said "Signal over range". Also when i found out the max resolution was only 1600*900. So i found a way to make it go to 1920*1080 however it was running at 30 hertz not 60 also the screen was very strange to look at. So if some one can find a fix it would be much appreciated. For the time being i will just use a VGA cable for my main screen only. https://www.dropbox.com/s/adghxpog9mvzyxn/IMG_20150527_104206.jpg?dl=0
  6. So at the moment i have a AMD A8-5500 APU however when i try to run GTA 5 on it or even BF4 I feel my graphics card is getting bottlenecked by my CPU as its normally 100% when I'm playing. So i was thinking i should upgrade it the problem being i would also have to change my motherboard to be able to fit it. I mainly do gaming however i do some times record and Render too. So he is what i ask for a £200 ($303.74) budget to find a CPU and motherboard. Current PC spec's: A MS-7778(JasmineR) motherbord A cosair cx500 powersupply A AMD A8 5500 APU Quad core 3.2 A AMD HD 7950 3G'S GDDR5 6Gs of ram 1Tb Western digital blue If you feel that some thing else is the bottleneck please say.
  7. Ok well iv looked at the cases you have suggested and there is a problem If i had £70 to spend on a case i would have chosen Phantom 240 as i looks just amazing. But maby you did not read this bit "Also i would like to only spend £40($64.35) If you can find a good branded case for that much then grate. But i relay don't care as long as it dose the job. So if i can get extra fans as stander i would go with no side window also i think that lowers the price. Which is the why i like the one i had before only £30 and you get 4 120mm fans as stander so i would not have to buy and fit more. Just stick to this one word "Budget" and then i should be happy. Thank you.
  8. Its cheap and a good price, But i would like a side window so i can see inside.Also the case i looked at is stated for that cases as "Mid Tower Gamer" Also i'm planing when i save enough money to get a Atx motherboard and a intel Cpu but keep the Ram, hard drive and the Graphics card So it might look a bit out of place for now but it would look even better when i get that new motherboard. Here is the things i require Side Window Big enough to fit my GPU USB 3.0 Room for Full ATX in the future if i have enough money. This is so that i can get another HD 7950 and crossfire it when games get more demanding this hope fully wont be for a long time. And Finally Plenty of Fans as standard to keep every thing cool, Why i looked at that case befor two top 120mm fans one Front 120mm fan and a Rear 120mm with room for two more I'm glad to here that it would fit in a ATX case, Just would it be the right way up?
  9. uATX Dimensions: 24.4 cm (9.6 in) x 24.4 cm (9.6 in) Hope this dose not change any thing. If not i will go with this "X-CASE EAGLE II GAMING CHASSIS. -SSD + USB 3 + WINDOW" Link here: http://www.xcase.co.uk/pc-cases/gaming-cases/x-case-eagle-ii-gaming-chassis-ssd-usb-3-window-25-00-x-case.html Also More details about my pc here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c04058519 Also Thanks for the Quick response
  10. Ok well recently i bought a hd 7950 and it has been running hot. 70'c when gaming and gets up to around 80'c. So i thought it would be a good idea to get a new case. However i have found out that my motherboard is upside down and so i dont think a normal Mid ATX case would fix. So iv been looking at Inverted ATX cases and i was wandering if i could use a normal ATX case as they are much cheaper. Here is my layout: Also i would like to only spend £40($64.35) Hope you can help
