Budget Gaming Rig Buyer Guide and a few thing

It had been quite some time since my last post so here is my new post.
And first thing first,Happy New year.
Some update:My E8500 E0 Q822A595 is sold!!Sad thing is,no one had E8600 in stock so am still hunting for it.

OK,crap is done and done.Now,get into business.IT is about time again for rig buyer guide and today,i am doing budget gaming rig guide.As usual,my guide require oc to bring the best out of your parts.
With all the interesting parts,like Core I7 and Pheonem II released over the pass 2months or so,thing had move on.While they are good and nice but they are over budget for this guide.So,we stick to good ole still kicking ass Socket 775.
Today,I set the budget to RM2000 but it is flexible as i will suggest some better parts thus making less compromise but believe me,the price premium is well worth it.As usual,my suggestion is making minimum compromise on component,i am more on oc,overall parts quality rather then squeezing everything into one small box or compromise a lot on one area for something else,like say gc.All of my suggestion require oc of some sort to get the best value.
So,let's cut all the crap short and went into guide:
Intel E5200 RM280
DFI Blood Iron P35 T2RL RM330
2x2GB Kingston DDR 2 800 value ram RM160
Palit Radeon HD4850 512MB RM535
Sunbeamtech CCF RM170
LG SATA DVD-RW RM75
WD 640GB SATA HDD RM240
Silverstone ST40F RM175
Cooler Master Elite 334 RM140
Total:RM2090 before you nbdo some bargain shopping,not bad eh??

Why i recommend these stuff?
Processor:Intel E5200
I choose this processor mainly due to the fact that it is very ocble.I mean,for below RM300 retail,you get a processor base around 45nm wolfdale but cut down to 2MB cache,800FSB and no SSE4.1 instruction.Expect it to hit 333x12.5 on some ok ish chip and more on better chip,worst should be 3.8ghz or so.So all in all,it is good performer and it is cheap but one issue:The FSB is rather low which mean less bandwidth.

Mobo:DFI Blood Iron P35 T2RL
I choose this mobo because it is still in production.Make by DFI,the legendary ocer board maker during s939 era and that is for a good reason,oscar wu work for them which is a good thing.This is actually a lot of board for the money.This board can hit 600FSB with good processor!!And do i mention,this budget board come with advance oc option,like clock skew and gtl ref which come in handy for some advance tweaking.

Ram:2x2GB Kingston DDR 2 800 value ram
We are working with tight budget so there are no budget for some well bin ram.This ram is the bread and butter ram.Current ram should be able to clock ~960mhz CL5 or so,a little more or less,depend on luck.

GC:Palit Radeon HD4850 512MB
Need me to say more??This is the best gc for budget and mid range gaming currently,able to run 1280x1024~1680x1050 with reasonable good setting on most title with one exception,gta iv but it is another story.

Cooler:Sunbeamtech CCF
This is one of the very good cooler on market now.This have one of the best bundle around,like tim,fan controller and a high flow fan.The thing i don't like is the mounting,there are no backplate but well,it just work and work.Alternative would be deepcool killerwhale.

Optical Drive:LG SATA DVD-RW
Simple reason,a drive that just work and work.

Hard Drive:WD Caviar Blue 640GB SATA HDD
This in my opinion is the sweetspot for hdd now.And this model,is not the green power therefore little faster.I think it is ideal scenario for case like that where one HDD is boot drive and also data drive.

PSU:Silverstone ST40F
This is the psu of choice for budget build.This is one of a very good 400W PSU around and it is just right for a rig like that but there are no huge future upgrade and no active pfc.Still,it is good for its price and that really matter.

Case:Cooler Master Elite 334
This is the best case for its price.The airflow is reasonable good and quality is hmmmm normal but the styling is not bad at all.Recommend to get one more fan as intake then you have a mini case that happened to have good airflow.

And,support my friend:
