Seriously. I wanna spend a maximum of £500, only need it for tf2 and other basic needs really. I have no idea what i’m talking about so i want a ready built computer, not fitting the parts myself :O. Don’t mind if a monitor is included or not.
I am hoping someone who knows a little something about computers can help me, so i can get maximum value for money :)
Thanks,
Hawk
I mean, all i want is a computer i can play a decent game of tf2 on. And by that i mean no jittering, good graphics and just in general i good response time
Looks like i’ll be paying this one off in my overdraft :D!

Inc screen?
Even without, Not happening for less than £600 from a site. :(
Btw, I’ve got a spare PC i’m selling for £250 in the local papers that can run TF2 no problem. Not a clue what postage would work out to but its a pretty decent system and it’d definately be cheaper than buying a new PC either way. The actual box its in is virtually new (only the parts inside it are used) so its pretty much like new condition.
PM me on IRC/Steam if you’re interested. :)

At the top of the site, it says Graphics Upgrade just select one of those. Even with the most expensive card it comes up @ £501. TF2 is all about the CPU anyway.
all those graphics options are shit, there are better gaming options on that site, infact you could probably cfg a pc on dells website with better spec for less.
if OP wants my advise, read some hardware sites
then go to a local independant store with some specifications, and ask them how much it would cost to build it

also by the time you add OS + gpu on that spec it is nearly £600

Plus £104 for windows.
p.s. I would definately suggest building a PC, its not nearly as difficult as you’d think.

He already has a computer, why would he need a new windows disk?
