New PC bits arrive Saturday - hopefully
Well ordered myself some new PC bits today.A new board,chip and a bigger psu..

The chip is a Pentium D 945 dual core 3.4ghz = £99

The board is not the one i really really wanted but to make sure i didnt end up spending too much i made a compramise and orderd a board which would take the new chip but also take my exsisting RAM and graphics card.newer RAM and a newr PCI -e graphics card were gunna cost me more than i had so i guess they will have to be updated at a later time.

Asrock Dual VSTA = £37

Upgraded my PSU though to a 570w one....I recon my 300w might not be up to the job of a better chip and bigger RAM ( some day )...Easy to forget about that part of the PC i recon...

Trust PowerMaster 570W Pro PSU Dual Fan PW-5500 = £24

Will fill you in tomorrow,hopefully it will all come.I paid a little extra for a Sturday befor noon delivery...

Reason...Well its my 40th Birthday....Good enough reason in my eyes....
