Thinking of getting a PC in the next month or two, maybe sooner depending on when i decide.
The use will be a secondary HTPC (doesnt need to have a small case), and gaming, perhaps COD4.
This is the spec ive come up with, im debating whether to get a monitor (already got a 23" LCD TV to use).
If its with monitor budget would be £550-600, without, id say £400-450 is about right? Preferably cheaper where ever possible though!
Spec needs everything (two specs will be done i think), keyboard, mouse, monitor but no OS. Will be using XP for a bit longer i think.
Spec;
Without a monitor is the same spec as above, without the monitor obviously, coming in at £433.41 inc.
Im not 100% on the keyboard, but i want a full size return key, and just a basic keyboard really.
Any changes you guys would make?
HDD will be added to at a later date, 250GB will be fine for now.
Thanks.
