Hey guys thanks a lot for all of the responses, I've upped the budget a bit. I've been keeping an eye out and I think I'm gonna go ahead and order this in a couple of hours...

Cheers, yeah it will be fairly light weight editing, just slightly tweaking and tidying up photos. I'll keep researching for now, I'm thinking a second hand PC might be the way forward with such a tight budget. The cost of an OS is a lot.

Thanks for the speedy responses guys. A quick Q: do software packages such as Photoshop and corelDraw use much processing power from the graphics card? Or is the work done by the main CPU? Will a mobo with a built in graphics chip be upto the job? I'll have a hunt around in the attic and see...

Hey guys, I haven't been on here for a while and I'm quite behind on what's currently going on in the computing world. I've been asked by a family member to build or buy a ready made desktop with a maximum budget of £200. I only need a tower, no mouse, keyboard or monitor and the price...

Tax? do i have to pay something on top of the prices shown on newegg? I'm in baltimore at the moment if that makes a difference?

Right guys i think i'm gonna go with the toshiba laptop- i rang toshiba up and they said they do international warranty on all of their laptops. Any other advice before i buy it? can i get student discount or anything?

Hey! my faithful desktop has served me well over the years, it's gonna be handed down to my sister; it's still great for playing games on low settings/movies in HD/ and internet browsing- the only reason i need a laptop i bceause of univgersity i'll be travelling back and forth on the weekends...

Hey guys I haven't been on computerforum in a while :D I'm on holiday in the USA for a couple of weeks and since I start university this September back home in the UK; I'm thinking it would be a smart idea to buy a laptop while i'm here in the USA and save a few £ (or $ :P) . Could anyone...

Thanks guys I think I'm gonna invest in the E6500 :)

Thanks for the advice guys. I'm liking the look of that E5400, it seems to be within my budget range and 3.4-3.5ghz would be excellent especially if its faster clock for clock than my 65nm e6300. Anyone got any quad cores for sale. A Q6600 perhaps?

my CF user name and code 196 I'm not playing online yet, i like working through the campaign and unlocking the units in order etc :D

Hey guys I've got my e6300 oc'ed to 2.5ghz and I don't feel as if its fast enough anymore, its mainly video editing where it lets me down. Does anyone have anything considerably faster for sale? Ideally i'd like a quad core. I'm willing to buy from people in the USA as well, I don't think...

I can't find your HiFi post some pics- of how its all wired together, and all the inputs the hifi supports. How many ports does your sound card have?

You've already tried it? Hmmm if its a stereo sound file you're trying to play it should work as your hifi should take the stereo signal and filter out the low frequencies and send them to the subwoofer. Post a picture of your equipment or post the full model name so I can see what you have...

I'm assuming you will probably only need something like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-3-5mm-Jack-Rca-3M/dp/B000FAHG9I The subwoofer should work.

Hey Nah thats no good, our laptop doesn't have S-video/RCA connections. Is there any well known USB device that will do this?

Hey guys I'm trying to connect my laptop to our Tv. Our laptop has a HDMI port and a VGA port. I can't use the HDMI port as we don't have a HD tv. Whats the best way to do this? Thanks everyone.

Hey guys could you check this one out, I think this one seems the best so far: Comes with an i3, 4gb RAM and a dedicated graphics card- ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5470. http://www.dixons.co.uk/gbuk/acer-aspire-5740g-334g32mn-refurbished-laptop-04619499-pdt.html#tab-tech-specs Gonna order it...
