I'm tempted to buy this for a laugh!!! I can't believe they can do all this for a tenner!!! Do you know what they are like?

That is one bargain PC

according to the reviews there ok, i wouldn't sit on one though!!!

 

[Techy]

in fact i wouldn't fart near it!

wot's really scary is that you get the psu with it

 

[Matt Jason H]

I'll stay well clear of any PCChips MB ... usually end up as chips. :crazy:

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! The system from hell!

Do you really need a card reader? Couldda saved yourself twelve quid just buying a floppy drive.

I'll be very surprised if:

a) That thing is stable

b) E-Buyer send you all the parts in one delivery and without problems.

I would, however, be very interested to try this system - ya never know it might be a little cracker

But I doubt it.

We had a thread a whiles back where people put together cheap systems, but none of them were quite that, er, economical.

If you're serious, at least go with an Asrock board.

i'm not buying it, but like you said, would be interesting.
