Have a look at FreshTech
You'll get an i7 processor for that price with probably a slightly better graphics card, choice of windows 8 or 7 and 16GB of ram.
How's this for a spec even has an SSD thrown in. http://www.freshtechsolutions.co.uk/custom-built-computers/intel-core-i7-4770-2tb-ssd-16gb-1600mhz-gtx-750ti-2gb-galaxy-windows-8-pc.html
They have plenty of options to customise your spec be it different graphics card, OS etc.0 -

thanks but can this company be trusted there is no reviews at all online for them .. there facebook page does not allow reviews of people to post onto their wall ...
have you used them or anyone personally0 -
pay on credit card.
The i5 one is too pricey. i7 one a better spec all around and I would chance it with a 1 year guarantee.
The i5 one if it fails, you have to package it up and send it, but if it fails after 2 years then..... looks like the 5 year support are phone calls only?0 -
I have bought from them. Came pretty swiftly around 4 days after ordering on free postage. Spec was as described, good quality components.
As bluesnake stated pay by credit card for peace of mind and added protection.0
