    It's the best one on ebuyer that I could see for around that price, but I don't think ebuyer is the best place to buy pre-built computers from. Also if it breaks there won't be much help, I'd recommend going to a high street store to buy a computer, where there's someone to talk to if something breaks.

    Seems like a high spec but the price is a little high also.
    You'd be better going for an un-branded PC. It's all the same hardware but at 10-15% less cash because it doesn't say 'Acer' or 'HP' on it.

    Another tactic is to buy a decent office PC without a graphics card and slap one in. A decent quadcore office PC would be approx £350 plus £90 for a graphics card.. it's a matter of finding the right offers.

    My mate bought his last PC from http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/ and it's pretty good (and good value). Be careful adding extras on there though, the decent price can sky-rocket!

    Something like this:
    AMD Hex Core Configurator

    • AMD Phenom II X6 1055T - good
    • ATI HD 5450 512MB Card - needs upgrading IMHO - depends what games you want to play. (+£50 for ATI hd 5750)
    • 4GB DDR3 1333MHz Memory - average
    • 500GB SATA-II Hard Drive - average
    • Asus M4N68T-M AM3 MB - good
    • Apevia X-Dreamer 3 Case - pretty

    £459 (+£50)
