im thinking about buying a gaming pc in the very near future, but on abit of a budget, i have about 500, could push it to £600 if i needed too, iv been looking at something like this Intel Core i7 2600 Quad Core PC Gaming Computer 16GB 2TB NVIDIA GT520 1GB | eBay
basically just wondering if something like that is good for the money, and roughly how much could i save if i decided to buy parts, and build the system myself, basically it will be used for gaming, alot of streaming from my nas drive, downloads, and browsing, this is for in my bedroom so will need to be connected via hdmi to my 51" sammy, my budget is only for the desktop itself, i will buy a keyboard and mouse seperately.. another thing is i dont want massive storage space, so id prefer a 120gb ssd in there if possible, as my 4tb nas serves all my files.
anybody got any advice on which way too take this, build myself, or buy ready built, hmmm?
ps i need a case that is nomore than 18" high aswell as any higher and it will block the bottom of my tv thats on the wall,i love the small factor pc cases so would prefer 1 of them, and also the best processor i can get for my budget!
thanks in advanced for any help guys!
