Thinking about getting Shuttle PC like This one or a barebone system like this one for a present.
Just wondering what's included with barebone system so i know what else to get to make a complete PC :D

Also are they any good just for internet, photos and musics/mp3s?

Thanks a lot
 
I beleive you can do most things except high end gaming.
You will need to purchase - CPU, RAM, HD & DVD/DC Rom.

On the Shuttle I am not sure were thr cd drive goes as from the pictures I have seen does not make very clear.
 
So is it only comes with case, psu and mobo?
Not for gaming, mainly use just for internet and storing photos/musics

Thats correct, for music and internet ect these will be fine, it might be worth to do a quick recky with seperates and compare the costs.

The shuttles are fir gaming they are a serious fast platform capable of a double width graphics card and up to 8Gb of RAM in he SP35P2's.
 
It's cheaper with barebone than get everything myself i think cos it comes with PSU, mobo and also case already.
And i can't do less than £100 for PSU, mobo and case?

But i quite like the look of Shuttle :D

No probs mate:

you can keep the above but change the board to Clicky and cpu to Clicky, this comes to £273 approx - or change the cpu to the E2200 and save £10.00.
£33.00 - £43.00 for above build compared to the Shuttle barebone :)
