i would go with #7

 

[DJ-CHRIS]

I would go with #7

But if money is tight, #1 would also be great

 

[SHAWN]

I dont know how to convert the cost. Would someone be kind enough to convert to US$

 

[jnev_89]

1 pound = ~ $1.80

i'd also get #7

 

[robina_80]

ok so all you guys go with 7 also do you think the hardware is good like case, mobo, hdd and psu

#7 is good but you could build one yourself if your up to it.

 

[PanzerKammander]

Yea bulding will save alot of money, especially with lower end computers.

#7 looks good. But, i would have to say that if your downloading stuff, a bigger hdd may be usefull, a 160 good, and make it sata, if that board supports it, if not go to the ol reliable ata-133

 

[waynejkruse10]

yeah, if you build one, you can get a 120gb or 160gb Seagate SATA which will be better if your downloading stuff.
