Best Ready made PC

TyszA · 10 Mar 2011 at 20:09

I am looking for a new PC as i am selling my old one, i am willing to spend up to £800. I will be using it for Multimedia and gaming purposes. I do not need it with a monitor, an OS or any other peripheral. Just literally the tower. I have currently been looking at these...

Get the Spinosaur and stick a 6850 or GTX 460 in it.

Do not try to game with a GT 430.

hmmm, is there anything else you would recommend as its not between these two, they just caught my eye

With that budget, you should really be looking at getting an i5-2500K system, with a GTX 460 or 6850. The Spinosaur seems like the best bet.

If you're willing to DIY it, you can save some money.

Yea cheers for the help mate.
nah cba with that lol fink ima just get it

Enjoy it, the 6850 and 460 are basically the same performance wise so choose nVidia vs AMD.

i would say get the 6850, as the 6800's are suppost to scale VERY well indeed when used in crossfire

would save £119.98 if you built it yourself. Of course you'd have to OC is yourself too.

But jus' saying.

EDIT: and saying that, just another £30 and you could bag yourself an extra 6850 and run crossfire....

I know you said you can't be bothered to build your own, but for under 800 you could get all this. I am no Stulid, but I reckon this would serve you well as a gaming rig for a good while
