  • Amazing gaming bundle at a great price

    i dont know alot about computers at all but i decided to build my own gaming pc. I was pointed in the direction of this bundle. Was easy to put assemble and the instructions were good and easy to follow. I brought an asus GTX750ti 2gb oc graphics card to go with it to and the power of the system is amazing. As said before it can handle heavy graphics games on high settings with ease. Would highly recommend to any.

  • An overall excellent bundle!

    Pro's: The board bundle overall is very, VERY good (at £219), coming with the processor pre-installed in the socket (no risk of bending delicate LGA pins!!). The OEM intel cpu cooler is provided. (although i suggest upgrading to a better one, especially if you are planning on gaming with this board. the pci-e x16 slot is pci-e v3.0, all the latest cards will work without issue.) The board itself is well designed, allowing for a huge double slot cooler GPU to be installed without obstructing the pci-e 1x slot or the sata ports. The 4gb of ram included is also pre-installed. The board will accommodate even the largest aftermarket CPU cooler without issue. the CD of chipset drivers and utilities included installed simply and without problems on win8 64 bit. the ram latches are cleverly designed, removing and replacing ram is possible with a GPU installed. 6 USB ports on the back panel, with internal headers for a further 4 ports. (all USB 2.0, no USB 3.0) onboard audio is HD audio (older AC97 front panel audio connections won't work if you are planning on reusing an older chassis) setting up is incredibly easy, the bios is exemplary, with an excellent BIOS interface that supports the mouse, making BIOS setup a doddle. the motherboard manual is comprehensive, well written (no badly-translated english!) and has clear pinout diagrams for all the various headers. You will need a good quality (name brand) 500w+ power supply, with a 24 pin + 4 pin for this board. if you are planning on gaming, a high end 700w+ supply is a must. some minor Cons: No PCI slots (you will need a pci-e wifi card if you don't want to use a USB dongle) No IDE ports (SATA optical drive needed) Only one ps/2 connector. (you can have either a ps/2 mouse or keyboard, not both) No onboard bios beeper (there is a header to connect one) A footnote: when you purchase this (or anything similar), open and check all items are present and correct before you leave the store (ideally, at the till), as a similar motherboard kit i purchased had missing items (even though the box was sealed with no sign of resealing, the RAM had been pilfered!) thankfully, that issue was resolved quickly and without any hassle.

  • Bought with a Corsair R300 windowed case and a CX600M power supply unit. Just fit it on a peg and screw it in to secure. Attach the cables, plug in and away you go. The instructions were referred to several times, liked the fact that there were lots of pictures of the motherboard and "zoom in's" on the bits you are working on. Some applications on the disk will probably never be used. The motherboard is handling the intended activities (gaming, media, live streaming) very well. In terms of gaming, it has been able to handle graphic heavy games on higher settings with minimal lag.

  • This bundle is fantastic! It's well worth the money at £280. Quite reasonable price on the high street. Elswher retailers are wanting this for £359 which is absolutely ridiculous! I'd recommend Malpin.
