    I've got a Pentium-4 3Ghz with 512MB RAM (Wow), 80GB Hard disk (OMG), 12X CDRW (gasp) and a 17" Philips TFT with a few dead pixels and a buzzing PSU. You can have the lot for £1200 and I'll even throw in a Polish keyboard and a HP optical mouse.

    I'd build a fucking extention to my flat if I wasn't renting for that mate.

    Seriously, that is silly money.... why have you picked that figure? You could buy a top notch custom desktop, and still have change for a decent laptop.

    Tell us more about what you want from the PC.. gaming, graphics, video, multimedia in general etc.

    only way your could use that budget is a stupidly expensive monitor or tri/quad SLI gfx.

    Do yourslef a favour and half the budget and have a holiday or somethin, or give me 500 quid.

    add monitor of your choice
    I have stolen money from a DF member and a member of Disqworld. All my personal details including families details are on file and will be made public to everyone if I do not refund the money I stole or send the goods I promised. My name will be ravaged across the net and the consequences will be severe if I do not sort this fucking mess out.

    My old man just spent around that on a single gfx card pc with no monitor.

    Was a dell precision and it looks more upgradeable than most to me.

    Single post douche.

    I've got £5000 pound to spend on a computer, but 25% of that has to go towards my mums vag cream, can you make a suggestion as to which vaginal cream would give me the most satisfaction in actual 'application' on to her furry lips?

    Thanks in advance!

    Personally Breamy I don't rate your choices, there are better processors for a little tiny bit more cash, like the Q9450 with a Yorkfield core, the Q6600 has been around for ages and I certainly wouldn't sling one in a 1200 quid rig.

    The Neo commission structure doesn't include a blowjob.......unless you're on a different structure to me. If so, let me know and I'll get my tonsils ready.
