Its been 6 years since I last looked into buying one and iam a little unsure on where to buy from etc.
For the last few weeks ive been hovering around sites and the only 2 places so far are Dell and pcspecialists, ive got a budget of £1500 so you can gather its for games etc.
With pcspecialists id just buy the base and get a monitor from somewhere like ebuyer, saw some nice 22inc lcd's on there.
One thing is I dont want to build my own, id rather pay the extra and have less hassle with trying to build it.
one quick setup for £1298, any good ?
