The Processor is the main part of your machine, and the market is run by 2 dominating kings.... Intel with the Core2Duo (the new overclocking king), and AMD with the Athlon64/FX

The motherboard is the nervous system of your PC. It determines what memory you can use, what processor, what graphics card... if you're mobo isn't up to scratch then it'll bring the rest of your system down with it.

Watercooling can unfortunately be expensive, so the quickest way to get your processor cooled down is with a good quality heatsink. These should be copper-based, with a highRPM fan. Unfortunately this brings noise into the equation...
|
Watercooling is gradually moving out of the underground and into the mainstream with the release of easy-to-install high-performance kits by companies such as DangerDen.

Whether watercooled or aircooled, all systems still need SOME airflow within the case. Within this section are various sized fans from 40mm to 120mm, adapters, speed controllers, illuminated fans, as well as finger guards and dust filters. The lower you can keep your SYSTEM temp, the lower your CPU temp will be.

There's more to memory than just capacity. When overclocking, the faster you can make the memory run, the better your system will perform. Latest offerings allow you to use a 1Ghz DDR FSB as opposed to the normal 400Mhz DDR FSB. Now contains DDR2 selections from OCZ...

Gaming has come on in leaps and bounds over the past 3 years, with the ongoing battle between ATI & nVidia raging. Advancements in graphics technology mean they keep coming thick & fast, and expensive!
|
Companies have caught onto the underground modding scene, and so have released cases that are a bit more visually appealing... from colored cases, to shiny aluminium cases for additional cooling performance and decreased weight. In here you'll find a selection of the best, as well as the full range of Mountain Mods U2UFO, Bobslay and H2G0 cases.

|
The more hardware you put in your PC, the more power you need to run it. If you find constant bluescreens or spontaneous reboots, often a lack of power is the cause... todays PCs require a MINIMUM of 350w.

As Broadband becomes increasingly popular, you find yourself short of anywhere to put it! Yes, CD-R's are an option but you could find yourself going thru 100 discs a week.... time for a new hard-drive my son.

A common problem amongst PC Users is throbbing headaches. This usually due to a poor monitor. High refresh rates & resolutions all club together to give you a sharper clearer image. CRT for those cash aware, TFT for those who want more space on their desk.

A soundcard is a soundcard.... or is it? DVD brought about a media revolution and suddenly studio quality speakers are available for PCs... FibreOptic connectors now feature on many cards and mainboards... the difference between a £10 soundcard and a £50 soundcard is easy to tell.
