A good PC for gaming?

It's quite funny the gap between the people who are technologically intelligent and those who aren't D:

It's funnier just to cackle at their technological short sightedness than to ponder upon the gap.

I don't think he needs to go get something with water cooling and an i7 because he's struggling playing habbo. A £300-£350 laptop or desktop would be sufficient.

I suppose that would depend on what other games he's playing although if they're not overly intense I don't see why he'd need an i7

Where's the fun in that?
Also he really needs to be able to play full screen crysis at highest settings these days.

Like I always say, the more ghz the bigger your penis. Scientifically proven fact, validated by Chipmunks.

We'd really need to know what games you intend on playing and on what settings, your budget, and if you're planning on purchasing a desktop or laptop. As far as Habbo is concerned, I doubt there's a new computer on the market that would be unable to handle it. I'm sure if you give us that information someone will be able to find you a link to a reasonable computer for your needs.

If you are going to be thinking about playing games such as COD on high graphics or games like that, I would personally suggest building it your self.

Getting a £20,000 computer wouldn't solve the lag on habbo if you have a **** internet connection.

Either build your own, or buy an Alienware.

I've heard Alienware has went downhill. I mean it is owned by Dell, which although was once quite reputable seems to have also went downhill. The problem is manufacturers will always try and get the most money as possible and try and oversell their product e.g. using words claiming it is the fastest etc.

I'd recommend looking into some sites that actually do custom built ones for you. But if your not going to play top end games then just go for something for about £300-£400

Don't buy Alienware. Overpriced.
