Hello,

Well I've got €800 to spend which is approximately £666. I've been searching on this site for a while now for a PC that meets my satisfaction. I use it for gaming and anything i can find breaks the €1,000 mark which is about £800 which i don't have to spend.

Here are my preferred specs:

-Intel Core i5 2500k 3.0ghz+
-8gb of RAM
-GTX550Ti graphics card
-1TB of HDD
-Windows 7 Home Premium.

I'm just wondering can anyone help me to find one that is relatively close to those specs!

Thanks in advance,
Greg

Hi and welcome to the forums,

Do you want a pre-built PC, or can you build one yourself?

What resolution is your monitor?

Is it just the base unit with operating system you are after?

Thanks :) Yeah I can put one together but the effort of ordering them all, plus my case wouldn't be good enough for the airflow so :/ Those specs look good, only thing is the graphics card, its a relatively old one like, I'm planning on running Flight Simulator X and GTA 4 so...
 
Oh right ok. It would be a lot easier to get it in one box and plug and play but i would put it together if necessary. Is there any way you'd get that sort of spec in a package for the same price? Like pre-built
