How much is this going to set you back??? Looks expensive enough, without the HDD!!!

Erm for the tower alone costs come to about £850.

Then got mouse, keyboard, speakers and mouse mat for £90 (and already have a monitor).

That is amazing, you're going to need to do the HDD some justice for a computer of that spec. It's probably going to cost you more running the fans for this comp, than paying for it.

Are you making this yourself, or having it specially made by someone else?

Well the HDD will only be used for storing films and music really so I'll be getting a 2TB 5400/5900RPM drive because I don't need anything faster and 7200RPM is a little too loud for my liking I don't need the storage until about September so I'm waiting for prices to hopefully drop

And making it myself

Anyone using VMs? If so, what for?

Thats pretty cool, I'm waiting till Uni, to do something like this as well, however i don't think it will be as awesome, due to a serious lack of funds

There is already a PC Spec thread somewhere (I think there might even be 2)

If there is then it's old, information is likely outdated and cluttered and lost somewhere

True, maybe we should have a benchmark thread too, or a combined thread for everything. We must know how these fine machines people have posted perform

I think it's a good idea but it may not be very active due to needing to download programs. Probably worth starting in a week's time or so when there are more people wasting their time on TSR out of boredom
