Research and then build your own computer, it's not as hard as you would think, and you get exactly what you want/need.

I agree, its best to put your own together. It deffinetly isnt as hard as you'd think but can still be pretty damn confusing if you dont have someone who knows what they're doing with you. Putting together your own computer saves a lot of money and youll end up with a much better finished product. If thats too much for ya, and you dont do much gaming, then id just get a dell or something along those lines. Remember, the more RAM the better. If you do game, then its best just to put your own together, a put together gaming pc can run about a grand, while a brand name gaming pc can be in the 2 grand range.

Just depends on what you want. If you're just looking for something to surf the net with and use a word processing program on, you can just buy a little Dell and that will really be all that you need... I think that you can get them for something like.. $300 after the rebate? But if you want something for gaming, your best bet is to build your PC or have a friend build you one. Like I got a computer that would've been something like $2000 dollars if I had gotten it from a store, but it was only $800 for me (not including the monitor or speakers) and it can run every game out there.

So, it all depends on what you are looking for.

Deffo build your own.. I was suprised how easy it was.
I built a system with an X blade case, 600GB storage.. 1GB Ram, 2.53GHZ processer (tho I would have liked to be able to afford more)
and extra fans and neon lights ect, and 2 DVD Burners for about £500.
And its perfect for my use.

Other then that check out Dell.

I'm gonna be building a new pc for Xmas this year I beleive. If you want to build your own, start off with the expensive peices first like the mobo and processor. Ususally you can find some good deals on combos at places liker tigerdirect.com
