I had to supply a value gaming system for one of my customers and set about selecting and pricing components. Then I came across the Chillblast Fusion shadow which appeared to save me about £58 on the price of the individual components. Plus it was built for me, Windows installed and offered a two year warranty for additional customer satisfaction.The system consists of:
- Intel Core i5 2500K processor overclocked to 4.6GHz
- Asus P8Z68-V LE motherboard
- Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 CPU cooler
- 4GB DDR3 1,333MHz memory
- 1Tb 7,200rpm hard disk drive
- DVD-RW optical disk drive
- AMD Radeon HD 6670 1GB DDR3 graphics card
- EZcool case and 500W power supply
- Cherry keyboard and mouse
- Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Apart from the generic power supply and memory there is little that I would change in this configuration. It would have been nice if the was the possibility to squeeze an AMD Radeon HD6770 GDDR5 card in there but anything bigger and faster would require a different case and higher specification power supply. This would have totally exceeded the customer's budget.
The system was well assembled with all the cables neatly tucked away. And it certainly performed well. As it stands, it is a great value gaming system with plenty of power and upgrade potential.
