Pre built Gaming system - which one?

Noobie1987 · 23 Nov 2011 at 19:33

Hi Guys,

Looking at spending £1700-£1800 all-in for a system with monitor, keyboard, OS.

I have been looking at OCuks pre built systems i have my eye on the Ultima mosasaur system with all of the upgrades available (16gb RAM, Cross fire upgrade, Win 7 home, 64Gb SSD). would pair this up with a 27" LED monitor.

However, are there better options for the money I am spending from the pre built section?

Thanks

Better off building a system yourself for that kind of money.

Nice budget!

I also agree. Build it yourself. It's just... better!

Lol everyone is saying that, I would love to build one myself but two things are holding me back. the spare Time needed and the likelyhood of me making a botch of it.

That being said with gaming in mind , everything maxed out with decent FPS which pre built system would you advise?

As I say above the Ultima mosasaur looks like a good deal when purchasing all of the add ons, 16 gb RAM , cross fire option taken, 64 ssd for windows etc. or am I missing something and one of the other pre builts is better value for a similar price?

Any help would be appreciated!

IPS monitors give the best image quality.

And thats SLI GTX570's

^^^ Can't go wrong with that to be honest ^^^

I'm jealous

Sorry to sound like a complete Noob but is the SLI card come with two graphics cards or one with the prep for a second in the future should I purchase another card?

That spec includes two GTX570's

The Arkham Annihalator includes one GTX570 as standard, and I selected the option to make it two.

ALSO!!!

The same spec is now £20 cheaper as they are using MSI cards instead of ASUS ones.
