    Selling Super Budget Gaming PC

    Ok... Its not going to run BF3 at 1080p at max settings, but is is a great little starter gaming PC at a super low price (the sum of parts must be worth more than what I am selling it for).

    Anyway the spec(more detailed further down)....

    Intel Dual core 1.8ghz (overclocked to 2.7ghz)
    4gb Crucial DDR2 Memory.
    Radeon HD 4650 graphics
    Pioneer DVR-115 Dual layer writer (I think we brought this for xbox 360 burning)
    80GB Sata Hard drive
    Motherboard has built in firewire and sound card (asus P5L1394)
    I'll throw on a copy of Win7 64bit.
    (will chip in power cable, and a OEM keyboard and mouse if needed. You just need a monitor).

    (see below for actual footage of games playing on PC)

    Looking for just £95 delivered.

    No, but it has DVI out...so a DVI to hdmi converter should work.

    Wrong. The diff between dvi and hdmi is HDMI carries audio and HDCP

    Yes that works because your card installs additional audio drivers because your graphics card has an additional audio chip. This chip with its drivers carries the sound over the dvi cable and Thats why it works for you.

    DF technical knno-how cant be beat

    edit: DM800 has the additional chip too

    DVI to HDMI Convertor cable supports stereo audio using the 'RGB/Audio In' using pins not used by the Digital Video Interface. The female socket on the Tele Box or GPU must also support the 2 channel feed.

    I would guess that the card in this system should force stereo audio through a DVI to HDMI Convertor as per this YouTube Video -
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=punAgaQcBN4

    And yes, if I had the £95, I would have bitten MsDG's arm off for this cracking setup.
