ECS mobos are alot better these days and getting some good reviews - for the price it would make a good basic home PC :thumb:



Edit: Just looked up the separate component prices over at eBuyer:

Mobo £27.79
CPU: £46.95
RAM: £18.99

Total: £93.73

So even with shipping, you can buy it separately for £100, so perhaps its not such a bargain after all as really bundles should be cheaper than buying separately?

I wouldn't bother - the separate component price on their site totals £105-93, so they will just argue its a saving of £5-95 on their own price and hence its a deal :rolleyes:

Nowt wrong with the Welsh Our Kid :)

Well, nothing a full frontal lobotomy won't sort out anyway.......

Intel Vs AMD, in a nutshell:

AMD are cheaper, they're good, but Intel are at the moment wiping the floor with them.

Yeah I know. My Son is welsh ;) Born in Bodelwyden just outside Of Rhyl

Yeah I fancy a change been using AMD for years, and is it me or are Intel a lot quieter then AMD? Just a recent observation i've made.

When I say quieter I mean fan noise in comparison

well the stock fans on the AMD are noisy, but as you all know I am a PC Silencer.

I can't sleep with the light on let alone the silly fans running inside the computer making nuisance noises.
