Hey.... basically have no knowledge of building a Pc and my dad wants a pre built system for buttons lol..... His games library consists of need for speed games like underground 2 and the older most wanted along with half life 2, FEAR game types and was looking at buying a desktop Pc but open to laptop suggestions that would run these games at max settings?? Any suggestions guys... Cheers

Can't recommend pre built from anywhere except OcUK on here.

The 'Black Ops cyber warfare' (lol at the name :D) is on offer this week for £442. That should do the job for the games you mention.

Ah cheers for the input mate :) he's undecided whether to go the desktop route or laptop so hopefully have a few options to consider from peeps here.... He doesn't play many new titles n just stuck to these games plus os will prob be a copy of XP home
 
Would pref be played at 1920x1080 res for gaming as he has a 24" monitor so cud hook up a laptop or a tower..?
 
Yeah starting to look that way but not my money so just looking for best at lowest price for his needs :) al maybe throw in a pickle if the best deal pops up haha
 
Just seen this on another website for £240.... Would this run the stated games at max settings?

Ah thanks for clearing that up mate :) al be sure to swop that out when am talking to the guys... Just 1 more question, this build doesn't come with an operating system its an optional extra but which should I install and would it effect anything like running his games as his old pc had vista 32bit installed but if a can update to newer and not effect anything that would be great?
