Question

My PC went t1ts up yesterday (hard drive failure) and I lost over 40Gb of data.

So out of frustration, I'm just going to buy a whole new PC!!!

Processor 2-2.5Gb (Intel or AMD)
512Mb Memory
Large hard disk (60-100Gb)
DVD rom
GeForce 4 128Mb graphics car

Budget £600-800.

Just need a base unit, and I have most of the other bits and pieces. I'd rather not use ebay after reading some dodgy stories.

Cheers
Andy

Cool

You may as well buy the latest copy of computer buyer and buy their best recomendation in your price range. You can usually opt not to have monitors and other extras and they have tried them all out a lot better than you'll be able to do.You should get quite a decent thing in your price range and it will be a heck of a lot cheaper than PC World.

Andy, look on the dell.co.uk and go to the bottom of the screen and click on as seen on tv, it meets all your requirements and more,but does not specify graphics card, you could always call and haggle.
