Its time for a new pc.
My last 3 have all been Dells and have served me well.
My Dell E520 is about 7 years old now. I've always gone for a modest setup since I have never been a hardcore gamer.
But now I really want to splash out.
My budget is £1500.
Requirements....
No Windows 8, it' horrid. Windows 7 Pro seems to be the best choice and supported till 2020.
An SSD as the c drive and at least a 1TB second drive.
A decent graphics card.
A blu ray drive.
Monitors/keyboards/mice I already have.
I want it ready built/OS installed. - I know you can save money by buying the components and building it yourself but I
really can't be bothered.
After a few days of research I'm liking this from Novatech...

A blu ray drive would have to be added seperately with this setup.
Any other suggestions ?
A new pc

Re: A new pc
I finally went for this model....
http://www.novatech.co.uk/pc/range/nova ... ti134.html
Windows 7 Pro and a Dell 24" monitor.

Its replacing my Dell E520 - a very reliable pc, it's never given me any bother but it's way too old now.

Do you play games? It's got a fair amount of 'grunt'

But in this instance I went for the best pc/monitor combo for my budget.
It arrived this morning but haven't had a chance to put it through its paces but it certainly is a crazy fast
pc. The OS is on the ssd drive and the boot time is phenomenal.
