hey guys

here's the deal, i've never had a high spec up to date gaming pc and have decided to treat myself to one.

i would like it to be relatively up to date with the latest hardware whats available and would like to future proof it for as long as possible so i haven't got
to worry about it.

main uses obviously for heavy gaming (bfbc 2 at highest settings possible, also would like to run silent hunter 5). my fiancée would also like to use some music software on there for her music course.

now budget wise if all goes to plan i should have around a grand to burn on this rig but if not i should still have £500 either way so would like to get the best value for money.

one last point is im not looking to build this myself, even though its something id like to be able to do in the future i currently have no experience in that area yet.

sorry for being so fussy about what im after and was wondering if you good people could put a couple of potential rigs together for that budget

cheers guys for your help :D
 
wow thanks for the prompt response

i would love to build my own and would do it myself. I don't think starting with a rig this expensive though is a good idea :D
 
with those rigs above, what upgrades would you suggest to get the most out of it

reading an article on bad company 2 last apparently some of the graphics cards stated there really struggled with the game on the higher settings

also whats the benefits with a quad core rather than a dual processor (sorry for the noob question, dont know a great deal with hardware)
 
CAT-THE-FIFTH

thats a good point there, in that case ill be back :D but ill be nosing around the forums and keep an eye on whats on the site, im also gonna try and familarize myself with whats good and whats not part wise as well since thats something im a little weak on :P
 
ok, set budget is 900 and i dont need a monitor since im gonna play on a 26" tv

but i would like a gaming mouse and mat and maybe a new 2.1 sound system

so im looking for the best poke for that amount
 
hmmmm i like the one above since it also comes bundled with mw 2 (one less thing ill have to buy :D)

also can i get this pre built and then sent out to me because as stated before im a complete noob at building these things
 
NormanPorkinson

very grateful for the offer but id rather see if ocuk can do it and send it out a.s.a.p
just in case what are your guys opinions on some of the pre built rigs just in case they dont custom build
