Anandtech avere una pratica guida per il bilancio PC per le Natale 2011 peri­od. Below is my own take on what I’d recommend.

I’m always inter­ested in get­ting the best per­form­ance with low power con­sump­tions. For a truly budget sys­tem I’d opt for an AMD E350 sys­tem, how-mai, such a sys­tem isn’t cap­able of gam­ing ser­i­ously. For a more power­ful sys­tem I’d look to Intel as their sys­tems are more effi­cient, so below I’ve based my second recom­mend­a­tion on the anandtech Intel sys­tem, with a few tweaks, includ­ing a pri­cing in sterling…

1. Ulti­mate budget system

Com­pon­entProductPrezzoCommenti
CPUE350£0Built-in to the system
Mother­boardAsus E35M1‑M Pro£99Offers more than some oth­er E350 sys­tems e.g. USB3
RAMKing­ston 4GB DDR3-1333 kit£20Budget 4Gb kit
immagazzinamentoCru­cial M4 64Gb£80With the recent jump in HDD prices, SSDs are look­ing far bet­ter value. I would build with an SSD and for bulk stor­age either reuse an old HDD, or buy one in a few months when prices fall back.
Unità otticaDVD-RW£17Cheap optic­al drive
Power sup­plyCor­sair CX430 V235 £As good a recom­mend­a­tion as any.
CasoCool­er­mas­ter Élite 335£28A decent enough case, with full ATX supporto
Oper­at­ing systemNessuno£0Il OS your choose to run is up to you. I could price a stand­ard Win­dows 7 install here, but many people will have old licences, or will be able to buy upgrades or stu­dent licenses which are con­sid­er­ably cheaper.
Totale:£279
