    I like the way you are talking. He could knock the graphics card down and if necessary later down the line he could upgrade maybe IF he wanted to. The i7 hd graphics most likely will be suitable for his needs.

    Thanks spirit. As I say, he is not a gamer as such and graphics aren't that important to him. I reckon we could get him a good system for his budget. Ill put together a list for you to scrutinise.

    Thanks for your reply. The reason for i7 is that I know he will do some high end processing at some stages albeit not every day. i7 is within his budget but. Take inboard advice regarding overkill.

    Is this a good deal?

    Cheers mate, I thought not. I can build PC's and have built a few. I think the RAM is overkill and would be better with more Frequency. The case seems standard too with no real cooling. Just seen this 'deal' and wanted other opinions. Thanks.
