    Default New Boxer - Base Unit query

    "Hi there, long time reader, first time poster"

    UK dualboxer (not even a year though) here who is relatively happy but wouldn't mind an upgrade into tripple boxing.

    Currently dualboxing away happily but wanted a hand from the more tech savvy here about this base unit. Aiming to run both machines at some point later and 5 box. Clearly not the richest person in the world but for a temp upgrade, what are your thoughts?

    Basic info for which I apologise but will updage post further once home from work.

    VERY Weak power supply.
    Slightly Weak CPU - the 2.6ghz is nearly the same cost as a 3.0ghz which will show you great returns.

    Honestly the only thing that strikes me as "zomgbad" on that is the power supply.

    Id save 30 quid by not buying the surge protector and 12 month bullguard security package and getting http://www.argos.co.uk/ProductDispla...Number=9828128 from argos instead. As far as security packages go you can get free antivirus etc which is just as good as a paid for package. As Zanthor says the PSU is a little weak but if they are putting a 1 year warranty on the hardware then I cant forsee any problems unless you want to upgrade the graphics at a later date then you will need a better psu.

    Weak power supplies could end up with crashing your system while trying to box. Too much strain on it. But as I tell everyone for the same price or most of the time cheaper you can build a MUCH better machine than what any company that builds/sells them will sell you.
