try www.overclockers.co.uk decent prices.

can customize your own PC

or just buy the parts in bundle packs for the cheapest deal (if you know how to put PC's together; they might make it for you if you buy they parts there- for a price im not sure)

[The Somalian]

Safe for that

was looking to build a pc throughout the year brought some parts already but I have just put that on the back burner. Want to just get soemthing decent now that runs majority of new games on the market on decent settings

[The Somalian]

been looking all over this is the best deal I can find

http://www.dinopc.co...400-94p1247.htm

or this?

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/-/3230/2497/-/30030065/Galaxy-3-3Ghz-Intel-Core-I5-2500K-Gaming-Computer-PC-1tb-8gb-DDR3-HD-Graphics/Product.html

Could probably get an i7.

i5 better for gaming(if thats what its for)

Id get the second one(you can easily overlock the 2500k(mines at 4.6ghz) but it depends on the mobo and your heatsink

Then buy something like:

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/-/3320/2587/-/19508912/Sapphire-HD6790-1GB-GDDR5-Graphics-Card/Product.html?ob=4&searchfilters=ae207{140-249.99}+

And youll be able to play anything on high, maybe even ultra tbh

[The Somalian]

was gonna get the first one and upgrade to the 2500k

if I was to upgrade to that graphics card also will cost me £550

think I will do what you said get an extra 500 gig plus its £25 cheaper

if I get this one extra £10 I should be cool

thanks for the advice

[The Somalian]

See the play ting though can't tell if it comes with an operating system or not?

[Raegus]

i5 better for gaming(if thats what its for)

Oh really? Why is that?

i5 better for gaming(if thats what its for)

Oh really? Why is that?

I should say for the price its better, obviously i7 runs games brillantly. But you are paying for extras like hyperthreading and games dont utilise that (atm). So if ure on a budget id rather get an i5 and 8GB ram and a better mobo than an i7 with 4gb and a lesser mobo etc

[Raegus]

Oh lol, was going to say why the hell would they put out a less efficient update.

[The Somalian]

So I am getting

http://www.dinopc.co...400-94p1247.htm

added a few tweeks costing me £685 but I think the add on's are needed for more longevity

added intel core i5 2500k

xigmatek HDT s963 for extra cooling

asus p8z 68-v LX mother board

getting 8 gig of ram (got another 8 gig sitting here so will be 16 gig)

AMD Radeon HD 6870 1gb

Xigamatek 500W PSU

Wireless 802

[mp*]

Sounds good

[The Somalian]

Added solid state drive

Been doing research on this company and there is load of bad feedback. But they are so cheap really in two minds about this

[mp*]

what type of bad feedback? Whats the overall price?

[The Somalian]

Some people saying they have been sent stuff with out the components. Computers dieing. Bad customer service. I am gonna take the gamble as no one is able to match their prices for what I have ordered costing me just over £800 now

[mp*]

post up the full spec

You build pc's don't you?

[mp*]

My own, yeah, I bought a pre build one, it was good but I thought I might aswell do the next one myself. Ill check out the prices of these and see if they are good components.

[The Somalian]

Ok thanks

DO NOT USE OVERCLOCKERS, THE OWNER IS A FULL ON RACIST

That comes to around 750 give or take so if they are actually building it for you then a little over 800 isnt bad. Just got to make sure they aint just sending out the components. Also no names on the ram/wireless card/writer make it hard to tell if they are good quality or not. Id say do some more research if your going to be dropping 8bill on it.

/

From what ive quickly read, it seems that if you get your sh*t and everything is bless then your fine, but if there are any problems, eg damaged/missing components, its going to be a problem.

[The Somalian]

Will do some people have said few of the things are refurbished from what I have read in the complaints safe

[Raegus]

I'd rather just buy a Macbook Pro.

[The Somalian]

Yeah that's you

I don't need a mac book want a decent gaming system
