£1000 spec for a friend.

Friend has a grand to spend, this needs to include all components, Mouse, Keyboard and Dual Monitor.

He has RAM, and Windows.

No preference over Nvida/AMD so go wild

Will primarily be used for gaming, cheers guys.

Nevermind.

I'd go Win 8 over 7!

Ok, quick update, he has RAM, Win7 , and would like dual monitor. Thanks so far.

And if possible, the better of the two monitors : the one linked and Asus VE247H

What RAM does he have?

Is he gaming over two monitors or one for games one for "what-ever"?

 

[Danny75]

What happened to Windows 7 requirement? No need for OS either?

EDIT: Ok, thanks for the updates.

 

[Digital X]

One monitor for games, the other for skype/twitter etc

On the RAM front, Corsair 1333Mhz, 2x4GB

Has Windows7 on order.

Anyone got recommendations?
