Hey guys, I'm debating whether to take the plunge and put together a new computer system for myself, problem is that so much has changed since I built my current computer (Athlon XP 2200+ lol ) that I'm finding it hard to catch up, and I don't have much time left before uni.
The PC runs things "all right", but its really showing its age and I can't play the new games like prey etc at enjoyable settings.
Was wondering if any nice guys over here could put together a few example specs I could look at, and possibly purchase for around £500, which isn't as loud as my current one (TT volcano 9 lol ). I COULD stretch to around £600 but it really depends on how "future-proof" it would make it. The only thing really to salvage from the old system is the Pioneer dvr-110 dvd writer.
I play a lot of games so if the spec could be biased toward performance, I would be grateful.
Thanks in advance.
