That's not bad value for money (although I'm not a fan of the case or especially the PSU, but both could be replaced easily), however I think the OP has already bought/ordered the bits.
Yeah, I'm more than aware of that bud, my query was because he hadn't listed the OS in his ordered parts list.Trust me on this one mate, I'm a Linux enthusiast (or freak if you will) and windows is the only os you should be using for gaming mate, otherwise you'll have a frustrating experience for lack of choice
If you've got the product key then try it first without a doubt. You can always sort the old one out after the fact.yeah windows 10. Wondering though weather its possible to the product key from his old machine to save £70 odd quid.
Still if I do that i'd probably try to put a bent version of Windows on his old machine because i'd use that machine - and if i do it won't update will it??
Ah my apologies mate :)Yeah, I'm more than aware of that bud, my query was because he hadn't listed the OS in his ordered parts list.
Is it just a stereo splitter you're using?Just an update, got the bits last monday, started building it straight away and apart from a couple of wobbles got it all working. Unbelievable just how fast windows 10 installed.
Just having one problem, my sons existing headset that has a built in mic connected to his old pc through one jack.
But on this the mic doesn't work. There are jacks on the front and back of the case for both speaker and mic. I bought a connector (female to 2 male jacks) for the headset but it still doesn't work.
Now there are settings for sound in windows, the asus motherboard and nvidia.
The graphics card is connected to the monitor via dvi-i port.
I've tried changing settings but nothing is working to get the mic on. Earphones are fine though!

I think you need something like this:
I might emphasis that I'm not 100% sure on that and it may just be a software setting issue.
