Hi
I am hoping to get a new computer after Christmas and I'm looking for a decent machine under £650 along with a montior, wireless keyboard and mouse. I have built one at power computing which is UK based in Bolton and this is what I have chosen:
Black and Silver ATX MIDI Tower Case
400 Watt Power Supply Unit
Gigabyte GA-G31M-S2L
Intel® Core™2 Quad Q6600 Quad Core 4x2.4GHz 8MB cache
Kingston 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 800MHz
500GB 7200RPM SATA II
Samsung SH-S223 22x DVD RW Black SATA
nVidia GeForce 9500GT 1GB
Microsoft Windows XP SP3 Home
19" Widescreen TFT 1440x900 5m/s Monitor
Built-in audio
802.11g WiFi PCI adapter
Mcafee Internet Security 2008
I'm not going for windows shista because I'm going to wait till windows 7 beta 1 comes out. Although I got shista on my HP laptop, I'm still going to wait till Windows 7 beta 1. Keyboard and mouse aren't listed because I'm going to a wireless keyboard and mouse and power computer don't sell them.
I will be using this PC to run cubase, playing games such as the sims, call of duty 4 modern warfare, abe's odysee and Tetris. If there is anything I could change before buying this build I would be happy to change it.
I'm always very excited when I recieve a new desktop or laptop so I would be very excited when I get this one. I would also like a better webcam as my Quickcam fusion has only got a 1.3 megapixel camera.
