hey, my current system is now about 3 years old and i think it's time i got a new one (specially as 2gb of my ram died a month ago)
i have looked at a few things but to be honest i just looked at price and band names that i know, i don't really know what half of the specs mean =) and i can't really decide between them, i am mainly looking for something for gaming and would rather spend under £1000
i put togeather 2 specs of my own
