Hi,

Would my PC run if I put a nvidia gfx 240 1gb with an i7 2.8ghz?

I know gfx card is bad but I can always upgrade in future.

Thanks

I see no reason why not, though you haven't given us much to go on.

You have an i7 chip so its a new/newish system, so the chances are its got a PCI-E slot. and it wont take a huge amount of power.

Give us some more info about the system to be sure.

I was thinking of going for this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/M9D-INTEL-I7-G...sktopPCs#rpdId

And buying 64bit Win. 7 and an 22".

Oh god....

Sorry but PC's and Ebay are NOT a good match.. IMO.


Lets start again.

How much are you looking to spend on a PC and what do you need it to do? Do you need a monitor, mouse and keyboard etc?

[sphinxy]

yes, I need it all. That's why I saw that one ebay. He looks well rated...

We keep our returns policy simple to help our buyers.


We will accept the return of any item bought from our store for any reason within 7 days of the item been delivered to you.

* not often anything will go wrong in first 7days anyway!!!


All we ask is you return the item is the same new condition it was delivered to you and the return postage cost is paid by the buyer.

*So when things go wrong are you willing to cough up the entire return postage?

Stay away from Ebay for a computer unless u live round the corner from the seller. You have been warned twice now!!

If you can afford £566 the build one yourself do a little more research and shopping around. A lot of places do a motherboard/memory/cpu bundle for less than £150

[V_R]

Well yes the seller looks ok, but the Pc is not all that.

Generic PSU, Case, Cheap RAM, and that motherboard offers no upgrade path what so ever...

So again, what is your budget all in, for monitor and everything?

[sphinxy]

like £700, i have a 22" lcd and can get os. for about £100, so like £600. I really want an i7 ;(
