Those are about the kind of spec i'd expect you to be getting for that money Di. Obviously the first was the better of the two. Keep looking around because there's nothing worse than buying something only to find a better deal elswhere.

Dell had a cracking PC for £555 the other day but have since changed the site and the deal isn't there anymore. ( i can't find it now anyway).

A mate at work is currently looking for a new PC and has mentioned this site. I haven't had a look at it yet properly because i'm busy, (honest i am) but you could have a scan Di, see if anything takes you're fancy.

Well, went to Currys at Ponte earlier and got this computer. I think it's pretty good for the price, I upgraded to the 17" monitor, it cost £449.

Marshman is right, if you phone dell tell them what spec you want, you can hagle the price, PC World is a good deal but try Dell .

Maybe they don't want to stand down because they want to rectify the mistakes they've made in seasons gone by.

Do you have a speaker lead between the PC and the monitor? (Guessing you do not have any other speakers)

Depends what's your budget and what games.

If it's the likes of Crysis you'll want a top end Graphics card or 2 SLI'd/Crossfired (2 cards working together).

A high end CPU like an Intel i7 or AMD Phenom x4 would be pretty much a must.

As for RAM anywhere from 4 upwards, again depending on what games.

Hi Di,

First you need to decide your budget or pc configuration or use of computer. Six months ago i assembled my computer and take helps from below websites to buy computer hardware parts

https://www.overclockers.co.uk/, http://www.novatech.co.uk/, http://www.scan.co.uk/, http://www.aria.co.uk/, http://eurolanditstore.co.uk/

and compare there prices and buy parts which have lowest prices. If you go with buy branded Computer then you need more budget.
