    My new PC

    In my earlier thread
    http://discussions.virtualdr.com/sho...d.php?t=243026
    I sought advice as to how to configure a new PC. I got many excellent suggestions.
    Here is what I have ordered:
    CPU Intel i5-750 2.66 GHz LGAA 1156
    Mobo Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3
    Hard Drive1 Seagate 1TB SATA 7200RPM
    Hard Drive2 Seagate 500GB SATA 7200 RPM
    Optical Drive LG Bluray/HDDVD-SATA-16X
    RAM Kingston 4GB DDR3 1333MHz
    PSU ATX 750 watt
    GPU nVidia GT240 1GB DDR3 XFX
    OS Win7 Ultimate 64 bit
    I hope you feel the choices are good.
    It should be ready in about a week.
    Again thanks to all who helped me.

    (I hang my head that I did not feel confident to assemble it myself. )
