Slightly random question, but what does building a bespoke gaming machine like this give you over and above what you get with a PS3 or similar?

PSU:http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduc...23&subcat=
these are the main details, other stuff are irellevant anywhere, stuff like wirless, dvd-rom, and others
only thing is that set up just for those parts get me towards 800 quid, which is kinda over budget, so might tone it down if possible, but is that the sort of way i should go?
if i go for dual channel ram, i rather go for lga775 motherboard is this right? and forget about ddr3
if i go for 775 motherboard, then what sort of cpu shoudl i be looking at? with ddr2 ram
also quick question many of the GTX models dont come with HDMI output, I would be looking at hooking the ssytem up to my 1080 42inch TV with only had hdmi input not DVI or VGA. what solution is there out there to get round this, maybe an adaptor for VGA to HDMI?

parthiban Slightly random question, but what does building a bespoke gaming machine like this give you over and above what you get with a PS3 or similar?
good question, with the amount of money im spending on this pc, i could buy 2 ps3's but ps3's would cost alot in future on games, if you know what i mean lol
plus with a computer hooked up to the tv, i can use it to watch movies and programmes instead of relying on my wireless adaptor, which then i sell it as wont be needed
plus i enjoy building a computer and seeing it working afterwards !

Saraj good question, with the amount of money im spending on this pc, i could buy 2 ps3's but ps3's would cost alot in future on games, if you know what i mean lolFair enough, just wanted to know whether there was an actual benefit - so it is just more of an "if you're a hardcore gamer" type scenario then.

The PS3 acts as a wireless media server though, so that would cover that aspect if it were an issue

Also as the p55 platform doesn't support tri-chan ram you would be better off getting the following : http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduc...ubcat=1516
Also whats your budget and what do you require? e.g is the budget for just the pc unit itself or does the budget need to include windows/mouse/keyboard/monitor also? Let me know and i'll whip up a spec for you

02-09-2017, 12:29 PM #18looks good, one thing to note is that OEM cpu's don't come with a thermal Heatsinc for the cpu so you will need to purchase one or purchase the retail version of this chip?
