Ok so I'm getting a new pre-built machine the main reason is because I don't trust myself with these parts and I broke my anti-static band aswell

.

Now down to the dirty stuff, the specs I require

.

Samsung B2230H 21.5"
Corsair Obsidian 650D
HD Radeon 6850
Intel Core i7 2600k
Corsair Hydro Series H70
Corsair HX750 Modular PSU
Asus P8P67 Pro (Rev 3.1)
1TB Samsung Spinpoint
Corsair Vengance 8GB
LG CH10LS20 DVD and Blu-Ray Drive
Windows 7 Home Premium x64

So is that what you are buying or what you want checked out?

Seems a great system.
Without the anti static band, we can touch the PC case to discharge the static.

Hope this helps!

What will you be using the PC for? Gaming?

If so the i7 and the 8 gig ram are pretty over kill, you could save your self your some moneys by going for a i5 2500k and 4 gig of ram. Altho this 8 gig kit is mega cheap at the moment

Yeah the i7 is overkill for games as most games dont even make use of the hyperthreading, the difference between the i5 and i7. So plus one for getting the i5 2500k and you could keep the 8 gigs of ram but i dont know any games that need more than about 4 atm

I don't get the point of this thread.

You know what you want so buy it.

Sorry wasn't to accurate how much would you say I could get something along the same specs for.
The i7 is for Gaming mainly but I am a hardcore Photoshop lover and Dreamweaver as well so on a Daily basis I will be having Photoshop, Dreamweaver and Fireworks at the same time and perhaps rendering out in the background.

What is your budget? Then we can start to look at your options.

1,450GBP

If you dont want to build it your self for that money you can have alook in the overclockers "Gaming System range" - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=43&catid=2040

Something like this would be well within your budget -

Just bare in mind it would be much cheaper to buy the parts and build it your self.

I know, I'm going to have a browse because I can trust here.

I had a quote for 1.5k when I could build it myself for like 900£

The one just above will do you well, just select the right GPU upgrade etc.
