Yeah, we don't have the time for that unfortunately. Would be cool though. At the end of this month I'll probably just get that Dell one. Seems like a decent price for what I'm getting. Though it says that the PSU is only 300W. That's about 300 less than recommended for most graphics cards, that I know of.

Haha yeah. Can You Run It? is one of my bookmarks. Great little site.

Ah right. Yeah, looking around I've heard they're kinda nobby. But it should be cool. I can fix a computer easy enough, by following internet and book instructions and asking friends. And I know all the internals well enough that I know how to replace everything.

To be honest, I've yet to see anything truly miraculous out of Ultimate. Nothing that I'd think " me. I bet they don't have that on Premium". The things my dad does would probably notice extra stuff, but it's not necessary for me. The dad is advising against getting a new PC, and simply throwing a graphics card in the current. But it's only 450W, so the only one I know could be alright would be Mirages GeForce 8800 GT. But he's the kinda guy that could buy a new motherboard and build a PC from that level up, so he rarely bothers buying an all new tower.

Why would I want something other than a Dell? I'm not really clued in on different brands. Is it just personal preference or are Dell known for certain cock-ups and stuff?

i5 is all new to me too. Does this mean something important?

Yeah, my TV is my monitor (a freaking epic buy, by the way), and I'm happy enough with my current speakers, keyboard and mouse. So I can save a bit of money getting all those things. Do you know what the differences are between Windows 7 Home Premium and Windows 7 Ultimate? I have Ultimate on my PC (dad put it on before I came to uni. - I don't have access or ability to put it on again). I'm just curious to know if I'd be suffering any major downgrade.

£600 tops really. Desktop, by the way. DA:O would probably be the most high-tech game I'd want to be playing on it. Or I might just get a new video card for my current PC. I already have 3GB RAM, so it should run alright. Though my CPU might not handle the game and my PSU might not handle a good card. DRAMA!

I decided to get it on the 360 today anyway. I couldn't wait haha. Any recommendations for game choices itself?

Though, out of curiosity, what would be your opinion on this? Seems pretty cheap, and pretty decent to me. Would need some upgrades for gaming, but nothing too expensive or drastic. That, plus gaming stuff would probably knock the price to about £550-600 max, I think.

I know what you mean, but I finished dragon age, mass effect 2 and bioshock 2 already... so, you know.

Hahahah don't tell Paul or Dan but I am forced to concede that you are a badman

Hahaha yeah that mission is a total bastard compared to MW1. My best time is still pretty poor IIRC.

Feel flattered, I went through the mission just to discover what my best time had been

Severely pissed off at my housemate who has dicked us out of internet at my house so I can't take my PC or 360 online Otherwise pretty good though!

Modern Warfare 2 will probably keep you entertained for longer.
