http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ looks like it has pretty decent prices.. I really do need to learn how to read one of these days .


Off topic: holy crap its volt! :o

i suggest you message skulfuk he is officially a computer nerd hell give you some good advice



... btw dont say i sed hess a nerd

thank you all!
ok, checking that site out now ishi and i just customized a pc at dell to see how much that would be... Ѓ400 with all the exact specs for EVE, is this anything in the category of what i might be looking for?

Post which items you are looking at purchasing.

And by the way, you don't necessarily need Intel, you could go with AMD and have similar (if not better) performance.

Humph. Just buy a Decent PC. Get a New Motherboard and a Nvidia graphics card. Problem solved. The store people can tell you what it can run.

toast: that would cost loads
volt: anything that can run eve (i need eve) so pretty basic
ishi: the parts added together are about Ѓ200, so im gonna teach myself how im ever gonna make it

atm im starting to hate any site that sells computers already set up... its a rip off

EDIT: k, so i found a tut and it says all i need is a screwdriver and the rest should really be self explanatory
EDIT#2: forgot to add operating system cost... raises it to 320 atleast... and thats vista... if it was XP it would be even more

Be sure you have a case too.. you kinda need one of those ;p

Actually, before putting the parts in a case, I recommend setting it all up on a wooden desk for example. This way you can see all your components work perfectly.
Sometimes installing the motherboard wrong will break your installation, because if the board is touching the case, the computer won't turn on and in some case could destroy some new components!

Ah, I see.. Better listen to riba then, I've only put together one computer before

yea, i would of thought that was self explanatory aswell... dont want the static to make it explode and stuff XD
