Looks pretty good, except your video card is out of stock.

I'll order it in a store wich is in my country ;p The Netherlands.
But I thought it was pretty good too, with monitor and such it's around the 700 euros.
Do you know if it's good for gaming too?
 
Yup, it should run most games nowadays. If you have some spare change, I would upgrade the video card to a 6xxx series, but that's just me. Do you have an OS?
 
it's to expensive for me ;p
but no ain't got an os, but a friends father can get a windows 7 ultimate 32 bit for like 20 euros (35 dollars?) because he works with a company or something.
 
Get a 64-bit OS for sure. You got a powerful processor and it won't be used to its full potential using 32-bit.

I was thinking about that too, but, many progams don't run properly with a 64 bit version.

That's what I thought before I installed my new Win7 64-bit, but so far, I have not run into that problem ever. Even if there were a problem, there are many fixes on the internet that will do the job.

Ok, well I'll see maybe I'll contact another friend I know, he can get that legal os too. Verry cost-saving lol ;p
But thanks for your advise, I wasn't sure about it because it was pretty cheap when you compare it to buildings that were as power full as this one but way more expensive.
Thanks mate

(more advise is always welcome from anyone ;p)
 
Windows (64-bit) has a thing called WOW64 (it's an acronym for something which allows most if not all 32-bit programs to run without an issue. The only time you wall have problems is with old 16-bit only programs which won't run at all.

Ok thanks, definitely going for the 64-but then. I also heard that with an upgrade version you just can get a clean install on a blank computer, just by installing it as a trial and later activate is? Can you confirm this?
