O.P. New computer
Well, I'm thinking of buying a new PC as i nearly have enough for what i want.
The least i want is a Intel® Core™ i7 920, with at least 3GB ram, and at least an nVIDIA GTX 260. Everything else doesnt really matter.
My budget is around £1500. Anyone know anywhere i can get a pc like this for around my budget?
(Also, no one suggest building my own as i've never done that before and would probably screw ip up)
Thanks

RE: New computer
Second link is a LOT better, a few hundred out of your range but I think that you should be willing to stretch as it seems good  |

Excessive though, when are you ever going to use 9GB of ram, and I doubt Jimbo needs dual 260s.
Plus, didn't you just buy a new PC? =/ |

Well of course it's excessive, but if he wants to waste money I'm not going to stop him |

Second link is good, but im never going to need dual 260s as vaccination said.
and @ vaccination, i was going to get one, but i never did. But now as i nearly got enough money, and theres the new i7 out, i was looking for advice.
Also, what is better, 32 bit, or 64 bit? |
