| With his budget he can afford a 4870 no problem. 1000 pounds is like 2,000$ (USD).

Yeah I finally got the guts to get my CPU at 3ghz : D CPU Voltage at 1.35 Volts. Idle Temperature is a little high. So I m going to have to get a better heat sink soon. Maybe then I can get 3.2 stable without having to fry my motherboard. |

I recommend the Asus P5Q Deluxe because of its 8 phase power, Cases are personal preference, if you want you could buy 1 HD 4870 and 1 HD 4870X2 when it comes out for a rig that destroys every game out there (maybe not Crysis)
