Kai well its my bday in 20 odd days so i was wondering what you suggest i get.

Im probably looking towards buying a new pc but the problem is buying it, as i bought a new one in february and as always i'll get moaned at for wasting my money :P

Another thing i looked at was 26" tv for my room, but only time i watch tv is when im going to sleep or somethings good on sky :P

So yh suggest technological stuffz i should get ^_^

I get about 500-600 pound so?

Dell 30" Monitor. 'nuff said.

EDIT: In that setup you posted on Page 2 you said you where getting a Saitek keyboard; don't. My ICT department use them at school, they're horrible to type on and have a plastic-y and cheap feel to the keys, they clack around. It's also really uncomfortable because the keys are badly placed on the board and take a while to come back up after you've pressed them, I reccomend a Logitech/whatever the hell you want, but not Saitek, stick with bigger brands. :P

In most games its been proven to decrease performance.
