My 12 yo DS is looking for a gaming PC. He mainly plays COD and Minecraft.
He has found this machine http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200704429960.
I note that there isn't any OS installed so would need to buy this. Seems around £70 for W7 on various stores on one.
Any advice greatly received regarding the spec, or a better offer (including OS) greatly received.
Many thanks!

Not bad spec for the money, but the graphics is underpowered for really serious gaming.
But 12? COD? Really?I'm dreaming of a white Christmas.
But, if the white runs out, I'll drink the red.0 -

Thanks, perhaps the graphics card could be upgraded if necessary.
I agree re COD but all the kids are on it these days, in clans.Don't lie, thieve, cheat or steal. The Government do not like the competition.
