Hello

apologies for posting about "that place" diden't realize we couldent get support on random spec of computers from other places, won't be mentioning "that place" again or any other site.

I was just trying to learn whats good and whats not. so i need to spend at least how much to get something that will run Diablo 3 on a pc that will need wireless, and i should avoid using other sites to buy things as there generally to good to be true...

I would like

Intel i3/5
8Gb/16Gb DDR3 RAM
250-500Gb SATA HDD
A Decent GFX that will run diablo/arma 2 at max
probably don't need a diskdrive as i have 3 at the moment, so i can try them first.
needs HDMI port and all other bits n bobs

thanks
 
So this is what im looking at at the moment, i'm thinking 200 pounds and i think i wouldent be able to build this for that money.

The CPU this system has is a Quad Core Phenom II B55 processor running at 3.6 GHz stable but can go a lot higher.
The Motherboard is a ASUS M5A78L USB3
The Ram is G.Skill 8GB DDR3 1333 MHz Ripjaws Memory
The Graphics Card is a XFX HD 6870 1GB GDDR5
The Hard Drive Disk is a 1TB Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm
The CPU Cooler is a Antec Kuhler H2O 620 Liquid Cooling System CPU Heat Exchanger With Integrated Pump
The Power Supply is a Modular Powercool 80 Plus eXtreme Mod Power 650Watt
+ decent looking case

it may not be the best setup but it's within my budget, can anyone suggest doing it better for that money delivered to the door? ( please keep in mind all additional extra like thermal paste and such)
 
looking for something to match... obviously if its close to budget .. like 50-60 pounds over then its ok and id rather buy the parts new from OCuk and build myself.
 
I would go for an amd system But for anything to work on a gaming rig U wont get for 200 Maybe double that and u are still lacking in certain areas for now id save ur money untill u have that bit extra
 
I'm not looking to play the latest FPS just yet , i just want to play diablo and this more than matches the required spec, is this going to be too slow?
 
It looks fine but I don't trust that PSU. Powercool is not exactly a reliable brand, if it goes out it could risk the whole system.

YOUR BASKET

This system just about meets the recommended system requirements of Diablo III, it's not a really demanding game anyway from my experience.
 
I agree, i would switch out the PSU and probably buy a noise dampened case as i hate loud PC's.. one of the major problems i have is needing an OS and for that price i cant match it with WIN 7 Pro installed
