Hey guys
i been asked by a friend to sort him a new pc it will be mainly for gaming
and he dont need a graphics card
budget will be £1,000
can anyone please spec me a machine
 
2Gb or 1GB? Either way its not top of the line, in the £1000 budget you could eaisly fit a 7950 which is a much better card :)

Does the £100 include OS, monitor, keyboard, mouse etc? Or just the tower.
 
He can easily afford something like this then:

Theres no reason why you cant use the current GFX card for a bit longer.

Looking for a little more help please guys
Was talking with my friend and was wondering
Is it possible to get a decent i7 rig
With a budget of £1000 graphics card to be added later
 
Most certainly, I think there is only a £60 difference between the top i5 and the lowest i7 (still Ivybridge). If your mate is interested in overclocking, then I would be £80 difference for the unlocked K version.
 
ok i came up with this please check if all ok
