Don't know to much but the only advice i can give is if you need to go that extra few pounds for better parts, do it.

Okay, I highly recommend PCSpecialist, and I will mock up a spec for you which would seem good. Do you need peripherals too, or is that all sorted? The only problem with PCS is it can take quite a while for it to get built, as they have hundreds of orders a day. I got my PC from them within about 13 working days

Peripherals? I wouldn't have a clue! As I said my knowledge is minimal if that :s

Peripherals = Monitor, keyboard, mouse etc.

Ah yeah I have a keyboard and mouse, monitors are all I'm missing (looking at 2 20" LCD monitors, nothing expensive)

Just mocked this up. It's a pretty good spec:

Damn I take back what I said maybe I do know a bit about what I'm looking for with the right site! I went on that site before you made that post and fiddled about a bit and came up with this which so far has been very similar to the one you made up



I then realised I had made a few mistakes and again need to clarify a few things.

I have a HI-FI AMP system with two floor standing speakers, so would want to use them but unsure if they'd be able to connect to the sound card/whatever

I'm also planning on revamping my TV (32" CRT, rubbish basically!) and was wondering if it might be worth getting that as a monitor instead (since I've seen 50" 3D TV's selling for LESS than 27" 3D monitors and that got me thinking...)

Anyway after fixing a few mistakes I pulled out this:



With the monitors I am also thinking about changing them up to two 27" monitors and not getting a TV, however I'd need to know if I could plug my console into them (I can image 2 screened skyrim would be awesone) before deciding that as I wouldn't want to have 2 monitors, no tv and no way to play my xbox!

Oli - give ds a shout, he'll give you a hand x
