After a new PC (just the base unit needed)

enfield_freddy

I,m going to bow out after this posting


I suggested a system that used modular parts , and all from main suppliers , the other links were to propriety products thatb have one off cases , motherboards subsized hard drives etc etc ,


the unit I quoted uses a STANDARD motherboard and a quality large hard drive and decent DVD writer.


the way things are looking the skt 1150 CPU will be with us for a good time , so will DDR3 memory.


in 12 mths time , as new processers are released , the cost of the i5 and I7 will drop .


the system I have suggested will accept those processors with ease ,


so in 12 mths , spend £100 on a i5 and upgrade the memory to 8 gig


alternatively buy a box from john lewis etc , that "IS IS" , IE cannot be upgraded or modified.

So your suggesting go for the 1 from scan and at some point upgrade it ?

Apologies you asked a question I didn't respond too, my bad.

The games I posted aren't played on any machine as just not powerful enough plus its on its had it, its an old single core emachines desktop.

Much appreciated.

Am considering building my own.
