Hi,
Looking at buying a new desktop, being looking at these
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AMD64-DUAL-CORE-8-4-GHZ-1GB-250GB-DVD-RW-256BIT-3D-GFX_W0QQitemZ110112686857QQcategoryZ179QQcmdZViewItem
Has anybody purchased from this company?
Are the AMD processors any good?
Any advice greatly received
Cheers Jona

Sellers feedback is a bit dodgy.
He doesnt mention what kind of graphics card or even the operating system supplied.
I wouldnt buy this.
AMD processors are fineRetail is the only therapy that works0 -
I wouldn't buy from someone who claims the PC is 8.4Ghz.
If I was in the market for a PC I'd go for a core2duo too.0 -
The graphics are onboard. No good for gaming.
There was a post similar to this a couple of days ago with the seller making ridiculous CPU speed claims.
If you felt adventurous, you could build that system for £204 from Ebuyer all in delivered. You could then spend the £109 savings on a graphics card

Plus case, loads to choose from.
I wouldn't recommend the seller though even if the price was sensible due to the dishonest CPU claims.0
