triforce_keeper Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk Go to make your own pc and put those specs in. You will get it cheaper. Had mine from there and the customer services are good and the delivery arrives after it's been built (usual 2-3weeks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UziT Posted October 26, 2006 Author Share Posted October 26, 2006 2-3 weeks...i'll die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogbas Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Well you're basically paying for nothing on that physics card. It only helps in a handful of games, and doesn't boost the performance considerably. edit: If you don't like waiting you could always go to the nearest PC store order the stuff (they might even have them in stock), and build the system yourself or let a relative/friend do it for you.

The fish Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Nah mate, listen to us lot, Dull are really crap, and over priced, and come with loads of preinstalled shite on them. PC Specialist are (a) good, and (b) cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The-Ironflame Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Dell are indeed overpriced. You can afford a even better PC than what they offer and the fact is if something goes wrong you're in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather go for the 7900GS really! The 7300GS is a bit <_< Anyway, just build your own, more fun. Core 2 Duo E6600 £220 Asus P5B Deluxe - £140 2gb Ram - £180~ 250gb HDD - £55 PSU - £50 Case - £50 7900GS- £120 That's like .. £850. And it'll be much better at overclocking with that motherboard too.

Had mine from there and the customer services are good and the delivery arrives after it's been built (usual 2-3weeks) I strongly second this. I used pcspecialist and I built a nice system at a surprisingly good price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
