Can you help/recomend/spec me a machine

The Scop · 1 Feb 2009 at 18:52

After my previous thread I have decided I probably will build a computer, with my friends help hopefully. However seeing as you guys know the most about the components and the likes I was wondering if you could give me some advice/specs.

Ideally I'd like the whole package to cost no more than £1100. And in that price I'd like to have

-4GB RAM
-Windows Vista home Premium 64 Bit OS disc
-good GFX card
-Monitor
-Keyboard
-Mouse
-and the rest, lol

Thank you in advance

Hi Scop. Have a look at the sticky thread at the top of this forum. It has good suggestions for most budgets.

£1100 is enough for an i7 build aswell, have fun with your new pc

Not really, not if you're including a monitor and other peripherals too,
Hows this look for you? Its just crept over your 1100 budget but contains all quality components. I havent included a keyboard/mouse as this is very much personal choice. Also I've gone for a high end C2D system, this is assuming you want this PC for gaming? If you do any sort of modelling/encoding /editing it'd be worth loking at a quad core, if not stick with this set up
