Hi, I am looking to buy a new PC around xmas time. I should have about £450-£500. I've had a go at speccing a couple myslef.. 1 # - http://img232.imageshack.u...age=pc3qh8.jpg 2 # - http://img210.imageshack.u...ge=mypcgd8.jpg Anything wrong with them? Also if u know of a better spec could you do a imageshack screenie so i could see it please, Thanks. |

| I'd definately go for a higher watt PSU, 500 isn't enough these days, other than that, everything looks fine |

Just a few things, 1000W with that spec, MAJOR OVERPOWER I would get a 8800GTX rather than a 9600GT, but thats just my opinion. Get a E8500 The case is an awesome case, I have it and think it one of the best. |

If you are buying at xmas then come back then cos everything will be different. You are wasting your own and others time asking now. |

Like Matt said with #2 the PSU is a major overkill, go for around 700 if that and drop the 9600 it's dire bad, get the 8800GT or 8800GTX. With #1 I would drop the 8800GS it's very bad G Card, go with the 8800GT. |

| i have to agree with Scainer. New technology is always launched around November-December time so i would wait until then coz it means other prices drop. |

^ Agreed with above 2, but also another thing to add is dont skimp on a PSU. A kilowatt psu for £70? It aint very good and will seriously compromise the safety of other components if it were to blow. Wait till xmas period and ask someone to spec you a system, you will be surprised at how much of a price drop things have had.
