You may have a small room but I wouldn't get an all in one system. As if anything breaks, you have to wait for the parts and then have someone install them.

I would definately think about having you build your own system or have someone do it for you. You'll get more bang for your buck that way instead of buying an all in one. I have the chance to work on an HP all in one but haven't heard back from the client yet. I've heard they can be a pain to work on.
 
i dont know how to build one also a destop just really wouldnt fit in my room as theres no space under my desk
 
Your parents got you in a closet? :eek: Forgive the humor there. Do you even have a bed in there? Another thing to mention is... What is the normal room temperature in there with it being so small? You would need good ventilation.
 
i dont know really never measured it but its pretty cold with the windows open and its actually 8ft x 6ft also yeah my bed takes half the room up
 
not really hot i have a ceiling fan :)

also can a xbox and ps3 connect to this all-in-one or not if so how really need to know if not can you recommend another one similar specs
 
How will your computer connect to the internet? Will you have the modem/rotuer in your room or somewhere else? If the modem/router is in another room then you would have to get a 4 port switch and put it in your room so that the internet can be shared between 3 devices.
 
the pc has a wireless chip thing sorta like a laptop i do believe so can i hook the up to it so i can play xbox and ps3 through the screen
 
Can your xbox and ps3 go wireless as well? I really wouldn't set it up that way for gaming.
 
woops sorry double post and yes ps3 and xbox have wireless capability and its not for gaming the pc well abit but ill mostly be photo editing and such
 
I'm sorry. I was thinking something else. As long as the all in one has some sort of video input. Thats something you would have to ask where you buy it from. The all in ones might be limited to what they can do.
 
well it doesnt have hdmi input (dont know what that means does that mean its not capable of play xbox and ps3 through it ect)
 
here are the specs i think there pretty good:
