Hi guys, first time here, so be gentle! I want to get back into gaming online and have around £700 to get a decent desktop.

Bearing in mind I have no experience of building my own PC (and don't trust myself to), what do you think my best options are? I've found this on Acer today..

Is that any good in today's market?

Alternatively what about building on Dell?

Really confused...any help greatly appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post :)
 
Its still a good system,But you should be looking at the latest 1155 sandybridge build.

If you dont want to build your own system then one of these pre-built should be good.

select windows 7 home from the drop down menu and the total should be £699.97....this system has faster ram,better graphics card and is overclocked for you.

- Case: Antec 300 Gaming Case
- Power Supply: OCZ ZS 550w PSU
- CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz @ 4.40GHz Sandybridge CPU
- Motherboard: Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard ** B3 REVISION **
- Cooler: Xigmatek Dark Knight CPU Cooler
- RAM: 4GB DDR3 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit
- Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB SATA 6GB/s
- Graphics Card: Nvidia GTX 560 1024MB GDDR5
- Sound: Realtek 7.1 Channel Sound (On-Board)
- Optical Drive: LG DVD+/-RW SATA Drive

At a later date you could drop in another 4gb of ram :)
