What's your budget, what are you mainly using it for? When do you plan to replace the PC once you purchase this new PC, i.e. how long do you want this PC to last you for, where do you live (so that i can tell you places that are close to you), will you be using the PC alot?

 

[Truly_bored]

well...my budget's around $2000 and I'm going to be using it for assessments, surfing the net, finding resources, emailing and stuff like that....
I want this comp to last pretty long because over the past few years I have bought 3 different comps...that hab all been pretty crappy..because i have only used them for around 2 years....
I live in Bonnyrigg....hope u don't come around stalking me!! LOL (Just Joking)
And yes i will be using my PC quite a bit....
