I'm looking for a good computer that is able to do pretty much anything.
I'm not looking to build it my self as I've never done it before and my knowledge I think is too limited.

I have a budget of around £800/$1300,

As for what I will be using it for, pretty much everything from browsing
to gaming. I'm more into console gaming but I enjoy the occasional FM or Total War game on the PC so I'm not a hardcore gaming but I'd like to keep that gate open if possible with my budget especially with the release of Arma3 soon which looks like a pretty demanding game.

£800 is a huge amount of money for me so I would expect the PC to last a good 5 years if possible.

Thanks for any help
 
Based in the uk,
Also, what's the difference between a 32bit and 64bit ?

+1, nice pc for the price, though I could build it cheaper ;p.


32bit is limited using max 4gb of ram and run all applications with more allocated memoru. You'll need that since in the future there will be more programs only 64bit.

Sorry but I don't quite follow you, you are telling me to go for 64bit right ?
 
yes. Pretty much right now 32 bit is just for older machines. 64 bit is the way to go.

Look at it like this. A 64 bit can run both 64 bit and 32 bit, but not 16 bit and below. A 32 bit system can run 32 bit and 16 bit, but not 8 bit and below or 64 bit.
 
Yes, 64 bit is becoming pretty much a standard right now. Times of the 64 bit driver problems are in the past. You can safely forget the 32 bit, as it was said, it will run 32 bit apps no problem. There are no 16 bit apps to worry about around too. Plus 64 bit execution is faster.
