    My mate has decided to get a new PC. He wants an alienware PC, but I said that they are too expensive. So he said if I can get him a PC more powerful then the one he wants for less then £700 he'll build it himself.

    He's gonna use it mainly for gaming, so it'll need to be pretty powerful. Also the parts need to be able to ship to the UK. So, anyone willing to help?

    if you can find a hardware site within the UK, you should be able to get a lot better system.

    for 1000$ you could build a system which alienware would have sold for 1500-2500. for 1500, 3000-4000.


    if prices are exact and there is .7lb to USD, then he should be able to get something like this:

    athlon x2 3800+
    2GB ram
    7900GT
