david_clint Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 looking at these PCs, what do you guys think? Major difference between first and other two is 2GB less RAM although 6GB should be more than enough right? First one looks most appealing but Pavilion Elites are newer models methinks.

maynardvdm Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 The Core i5 are really good also, and is much less than the i7. All those Pc's look good it is really up to you on how much you want to spend.

kevh Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 i agree all look good specs apart from Graphics cards are abit naff if any gaming or serious graphics are required of it. (Nvidia GTS250 would be best starting point for GPU if any of the above required) Cheers Kev :cool: Quote Home Pc: Intel i5 - 4460 3.20 ghz 8gb Kingston Hyper-X Fury Dual-DDR3 1600MHz Windows 10 64bit HomeEVGA 960 GTX SSC 2Gb GDDR 5 DX12Corsair VS430watt PSU250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD24" Benq Led screen Work Pc: Quad Q9550 2.83ghz4gb XMS2 DDR2 800mhzAsus P5QL Mobo Windows 7 PremiumPalit GTS250 1GB ddr3 450watt FSP PSU640Gb WD Caviar Blue HD22" Samsung Lcd (1680x1050)
