| 1313844 | 2012-11-21 12:26:00 | oh god can someone please change the colour of that text. also I personally feel thay there are websites that offer much better deals then playtech, my favorite being computer lounge who also charge no shipping within NZ. What do you have in mind... is it for gaming, video editing or what? Them im sure the people here will be happy in finding you the best bang for your buck. |

| 1313846 | 2012-11-21 18:49:00 | www.playtech.co.nz and upgrade to a 660Ti. If you don't need the OS, drop that out and bump up the RAM to 16GB, CPU to 3570, and drivespace to 2TB or something. | inphinity (7274) | ||

| 1313849 | 2012-11-21 22:46:00 | 16gb of ram seems unecesary, out of my 8 gigs it seems that hardly ever is more than 4 used and aslong as you have a decent gpu with enough vram then it wont use preferably any of the other ram. | Slankydudl (16687) | ||
| 1313850 | 2012-11-21 23:26:00 | Get something like this www.computerlounge.co.nz already built. Doesn't include monitor, mouse, keyboard etc. :) |

| 1313851 | 2012-11-22 01:40:00 | Gamers often need something portable. The following is a very good Desktop PC but only 36% the size of a normal mid-Tower: - Silverstone SG08 case, which incl 600W psu; 222W x 190H x 351D - GA-Z77N-WIFI motherboard (mini-ITX) - i5-3570k - 8 GB ram - HD 7750 video card (but you might go better. The case takes full size cards) - 120 GB SSD Intel 330 - 2 TB HDD WD 'Green' 3.5" - 20 GB SSD cache for the 2 TB - slim ODD - Win7pro64 It's what I am considering. (For space reaons, not gaming) |
