Hi guys i need a spec up for about £450 that includes everything 17" monitor is a must, it must also include keyboard mouse and windows! lol , it needs to be able to play counterstrike source and WoW with as little fuss as possible and at OK settings, thx again

i am not too sure if that will be possible on such a low budget, £150 of that would be used up for the monitor, then another £100 for a gfx card capable of playing these ok, so that leaves you with £200 for everything else, i am not up to the challenge! lol

that budget is more for word processing machines!!

This is about as close to the budget as I'm willing to go, you don't have discrete graphics because you can't fit them into the budget and I can't fit a tft into the price either.

Don't take it personally here. Some people have limited budgets and there is little they can do about it, a gaming PC is still more or less a luxury good so the only thing that one can do is to get it as close to the budget as possible.

Oh and it may be possible if they are happy to go for socket 939 but that does cut out much in the way of an upgrade path.

Yea I understand, but before even posting about such questions, they should have taken a look at what Ocuk offers and the prices set for each components. Then they should evaluate and come up with an estimate of how much they need for a gaming computer that suits their needs. I am mad not because his budget is low or anything, I am mad because he is asking redundant questions. He just hopes somehow someone here will be able to look for his ideal 400 quids full set computer.
