Well, i assume that that is in pound. hmmm. I got my system (with out the monitor) for $1000 if that helps you. I had the monitor. And I assume that 1000 british pound is more than 2000 dollars. Well, i had the oprating system, cd drives, and my video card cost me less than what you are going to get, but that doesn't give me a good reason why you are spending more than 700 dollars (i am taking 300 dollars off for the monitor etc) than me. Also I got my system 2 months ago when the processor was 50 dollars more. Come on. you could find a better deal.


I like that system.

Here this gPU be better http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Comp...me+8600GT+512MB+Silent+PCI-E+?productId=28044 it's a GT only but it's a 512mb

Get a WD or Seagate hard drive (I prefer WD). I'd go for a corsair 520/620 PSU and maybe a zalman cpu cooler instead of AC but no big difference.... nice build tho

I've just realised i've put 36750 as opposed to E6750, my bad! lol

Im hoping this computer will last me for around 3years. I understand that it might struggle towards the end of this period, but as long as it will run DX10 games for the next 2 years without complaining then i'll be happy. This is basically being built as opposed to a PS3, so needs to be good
