Spec Me

Atomic · 3 Jul 2008 at 20:42

I've talked a person at work to get a new pc as hers is very poor. I'd prefer to use OCUK to get the parts and wondered if people could spec me two pc's for under £500 each (excluding monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers) SO just the box unit.

I need one PC to be a gaming PC for games like Sims2 and future average games (not Crysis or stuff that's high end) and has to be XP Pro.

I'd like the other to be spec primarily as an office style computre to use things like Internet, Office 2003 and the like and not really for gaming. As above this has to be XP Pro.

Thanks.

do they have to be 500 each? or can one be 700ish and the other 300ish?
also is xp included in the price? or do you already own it?

For the office system, Asus are bringing out some desktop versions of their Eee PC.

That's running XP, and should be fit for such work. Also its small, quiet, and looks stylish.
