Hey guys! I have had my eye on this machine for some time now and I am so tempted to press the button now and purchase it!

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-054-OG

But with all the rumours about with the new 8 series cards being released I just don't know what to do :(

Shall I just purchase it now with the 780? Or wait? Some say the 8 series will be here in 2 weeks and some say October. I don't know what to believe!

What would you guys do? Just looking at that system now I am melting lol xD

I would build my own if you can do that, give your more for your money and also gives you the skills needed to fix it should the need arise.

But as has been said if you can wait id wait we should hopefully have some solid leads in a week or two as when the 8 series will arrive

Ok thanks for all the help guys.

Clearly shown me that building it can save a lot of money. Just the thought of buying it and using it staight out the box is sweet! Then again, it will only take a day to build!

I will 100% wait for the 8 series then if its just weeks away and try build a system from there onwards!

Thanks for your help guys!

The longest part of most builds is installing the OS unless your a custom builder, its like a jigsaw take your time read the instructions and you cant got wrong :)
 
Haha. Im sure i will be fine, built a few systems in the past but not proffesional by all means. I rekon i wil need 1 whole day :D But yes like the others said it is fun ! Its like creating your own child and making it look and perform the way you want it to :D

Weird but true!

Looking around now i noticed i can build the pc for the same price as its being sold for on the ocuk website but the parts are better perforamnce in and by manufacturers name etc...

So i can see where you guys are coming from get a lot more for your money xD
