Hi all,

I've decided it's time I got myself a new PC mine is creaking a bit. My realistic limit is £400. I'm not a gamer really I only play things like Football Manager so I want to make sure it's got plenty of memory I'm just not up to date on processors though so haven't got a clue what i'm looking for on that front. I tend to use my PC more for Browsing the net listening to music and ripping backup copies of my DVD's things like that so plenty of storage is important. I was thinking this maybe? I already have a new monitor and Windows XP Pro don't plan moving to Vista until it's been service packed

Not sure if I might want a better DVD-RW drive and might consider getting a graphics card at a later date. Anyone know of anything better than that?

Thanks
Chris

Unless the copy of XP is OEM you will need to buy another copy . The system looks pretty good value to me .
