 | And what about the differences between Vista Home basic <-> Premium? It seems a basic version should suffice for a gaming system? http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...s/default.aspx |

| How about this PSU: http://www.ocztechnology.com/product...m_power_supply Sure, it isn't modular, but I don't card thát much for it. It provides 600W (on 4 12V rails) and is almost half the price of the modXstream 500W. (about 34EUR) Winner? |

  | yep made that's a steal, I've build a few of these and they were back then ( a few months ago) over 80 euros For the Windows most users go for the premium ( I ordered a basic 64 but even after 2 weeks it still hasn't arrived so I went for the 20 euro extra for the premium) Go for it and build that pc Would be nice if you could post some piccies of the final build |

 Question: is it really? Because I think the price of 33EUR was a mistake and that now they try to avoid selling too cheap? Anyway, guess it's back to the OCZ ModXStream 500W... | |

| Well you still got 3 years of support if you buy it so why bother... this PSU was sold over 80 euro's a few months back... I have build several gaming rigs with this PSU last year and they are still going strong... for 33 euro's it's a steal  |

| I suspect them to have removed their stock... they still sell these PSU's at eg alternate but at a higher price then 33 euro's... EDIT : I talked to the shop owner of www.jaha.be : he still can order them for 58 euro's... |

| So, recieved the parts this week. Apart from the fact that the videocard had clearly been used before, I (and my brother  ) are very pleased with the system. |
