Right my 5 year old Dell is going to a new home and I'm getting myself a new desktop, hows this for a spec;

8GB Memory
1TB Raid 0
1GB Dedicated Graphics
8 Core Processor
DVD etc

I don't need a monitor or keyboard, guess how much ?

If its for windows then I hope that raid 0 is in SSD's !

free ?

Rocket Pooch

Not free and not SSD's its under £349  :o  If I added 2x64gb SSD's add another £140...

My windows 7 64 is quick and that's on an old PC one nearly 20x time quicker should run well.

Also I'll put Virtualbox on it, then I won't break it playing about with stuff, oh toys :-)
