£600 for a new PC

[Big Bang]

After my last post I've managed to get an addition 100 squid to build a new pc.

Can any of you kind folk hook me up with a good spec please

All I want is a large hard drive and if possible a good digital 19" widescreen monitor although I feel the latter is pushing it at this price

Thanks all the same in advance

I don't know if you need keyboard and mouse or software so I've left around £50 in the budget in case. This uses onboard graphics but if you don't need anything else a 7300GT should fit into the budget for basic games playing and the like.

No idea how big you wanted the hdd is 320g big enough or more? do you game? if so the 1950 is a good card if not then drop it down and spend the money elsewhere. The monitor I haven't read any reviews on but from the spec it looked good. The case is in white cause the black is outta stock. Do you need an operating system? And you can easiy over clock to around 3gig. How this strike you?


Edit, bugger it beaten again, didn't see that ocuk monitor, I'd drop it down to that and whack 2gig ram in.

Edit, sod it no psu, screw mine and go with semi-pros

Thanks for that lads. Those specs look good.

I'm looking at at least 200GB for the hard drive space.

yeah semi-pro's rig is great, I would choose that one, try and chuck in a GFX card if you can (depends what you are gonna do with it tbh
