i know.. next time ill just buy the most expensive new bundle.... if i have the wedge of course. im hoping its just the board for now... they have a asrock board that my ram will fit and proccecor for about 35 quid. if its the CPU then its gonna be about 90 quid... if its both... it could be a new bundle and upgrade.

any opinions on the adm chips.... like in this bundle??? or is the i5 intel chips better....

Would be fine for CSS etc but may struggle with something like Battlefield 3.

hmm..may have to splash out a bit then

i did see an amd 6 core proccessor/4gb ramm for 199 quid.....

To play BF3 well you would probably need this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showprodu ... =BU-023-OP with a good graphics card (most games are reliant solely on the graphics card but some do demand a fair bit of CPU, won't know about BF3 until it comes out and people review it).

yeah i did look at that one. if i do get a bundle i will probably go for something decent so it lasts a bit.... brad says the gtx 480 cards are pretty good if my card is the problem... i see clockers do pre-overclocked bundles but im not sure if i want it overclocked...

heard anything about those asrock boards.... if its just the board that is shot i may have to get one S THE OTHERS ARE DDR3..AND I HAVE DDR2 they dont do my board now.... says something about it i supose.

Asrock are a budget brand, they are the sort of thing you will find in the generic Dell, HP, Samsung, Lenovo etc

Problem is with technology, it moves so fast within 3 months what you have is obsolete.

Or spend 1k and get the same machine without the stupid alien case.
