Hello everyone!
Some of you may remember helping me choosing components for a new build..now my parents dont have faith in my ability to build.. So im going for a pre built system from OC'ers

Im stuck on which one..
This
or
this
My budget is £870 i need OS..so please can i have some advice on what CPU and graphics to chose?
Or Will there be pre built systems up soon using sandy bridge but still cheap?

Cheers guys!

are you choosing windows 7 home premium 64bit ???

if so i would recommend this one

as you can have a the new gen ATI card, the sapphire 6870

also it ha a h50 cpu cooler (im building a new gaming rig and running 1 myself) you can overclock the cpu to 4ghz

also its a nice looking case if you ask me

Id get second one, unless they love WOW

yup agreed

the second build is much better for the price like i said you can have a new gen ATI card

It's a shame your parents don't have faith in your ability to build from scratch, it really is a lot easier than it looks. I think the trickiest part of building your own is attaching the CPU heatsink as some can be a PITA, that's my opinion only though.

I agree with the other two posters, the second build is better for the price with the new gen ATI card.
