Sasha, thanks for the info. I've built up that pc on a few sites and looks to be pushing £1000. My only concern building myself would be, no warranty and only my limited knowledge to put it all together, which i'm not confident of doing. So maybe biting the bullet and getting it built properly with a warranty is worth it in my case. Although i'll probably have to sacrifice either the SSD or a weaker graphics card.

I can swap out the nvidia for AMD Radeon HD 6950 1024MB Graphics Card. only £30 more. From what i understand MMORPG games will benefit albeit slighty from running on a 64bit system. Also as you say the price difference is a few % of the £800 price.

Thats with windows 7 64 So the plan is to load operating system and the game on to the solid state drive so it all loads up mega fast. Then the Hard disc for everything else. Hope i've not made any noob mistakes there, but from my understanding that'd be the most efficient way?

I was hoping under £800 Spent all morning reading up on the tech. So far i've built one for around £850 Can choose from any of these processor for the same price? Intel Core i5 2500K Processor Overclocked to up to 4.6GHz Intel Core i5 3570K Processor 3.40 GHz (No Overclocking) Intel Core i5 2500K Processor 3.30 GHz (No Overclocking) Intel Core i5 3570K Processor Overclocked to up to 4.5GHz (with upgraded fan if oveclocked) 8gb memory nvidia geforce gtx 560ti 1024mb a 120gb solid state drive in addition of 1000gb hd then everything else pretty standard.

Ok, cheers Dan. Good link, they actually have a 'build your pc around which game you play' and guild wars 2 is there, so that's a good start. Thanks for the info it's quite hard trying to learn this stuff from a laymans starting point.

Although if i swap the i5 proccessor for the top spec Intel Core i7 3770K Processor Overclocked to up to 4.6GHz it's £118 more. If everything else on the system holds up, i guess thats pretty good value for money?

I'm looking to spend as little as possible really, as i'll probably be only using my PC for this one game. i think an i7 pushes the price too high for me. http://www.chillblast.com/Chillblast-Fu ... imera.html This is the base level gaming PC on chillblast. Easily enough for the minimum requirements, but i'm not sure it could have smooth FPS at higher game settings. Also i'm pretty clueless on Graphics Cards

Thanks, will check it out, going to have to do alot of reading to catch my knowledge up on CPU and graphics cards.

So after several years of only console gaming i'm returning to some PC gaming with the release of Guild Wars 2. I will need a new PC for this, i don't know a great deal about spec but would like to play the game on it's top settings without going overboard on budget. I've looked through the Dell website and have made up a few systems but it's a minefield trying to know which processors and graphic cards would be best and offer best value for money. Below are the minimum requirements, Windows® XP Service Pack 2 or better • Intel® Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz, Core i3, AMD Athlon 64 X2, or better • 2 GB RAM • NVIDIA® GeForce® 7800, ATI X1800, Intel HD 3000, or better (256MB of video RAM and shader model 3.0 or better) • 25 GB available HDD space • Broadband Internet connection • Keyboard and mouse This looks to me like a pretty basic PC and i'm finding it hard to find the requirements to play the game on top settings. Any help would be much appreciated, also if your going to be purchasing it, the more friends the better for questing and raiding. Thanks, Topcat

6-7% loan isn't too bad imo.

Get a loan instead of finance?

I was thoroughly underwhelmed with the 360. But the Lamborghini was an experience, the sheer braking power is impressive.

Very nice, white should definitely have been a standard production colour.

Quoted at half the price Nice One man!

Will do, Cheers Tarmac.

Have just bought this headunit on offer from Halfords as it seems a good deal and have become too frustrated with the shocking Bose unit. Sony XAV 622 http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... e=shopping Struggling to find somewhere to install it locally. I've had a quote for £150 to install it including all the required leads and fascia. Seems a little steep to me? Would be of great help if anyone knows anywhere local that could do it cheaper? Cheers, Tom.

I have an 04' azure blue OEM front, recently taken off my car, not got round to selling yet. In good condition. Pm Me if interested.

Have jap speed manifold and scorpion cat back i believe. Have took it out for another spin, seems to have a few flat spots when changing in to second and giving it medium acceleration, but then smoothes out. Will have a look for the pedal dance then, thanks.

Drove all of a mile today, both lights came on, but with was still running fine. pulled over, turned off then restarted fine, EML still on but ESP was off, drove a few miles to the gym without a problem. Then trying to restart an hour later took a few seconds till it kicked in to life. EML and ESP both on again, drives fine and revs freely. Any ideas? Had a 200 mile round trip yesterday, i usually do short journeys, so wondering if this could of had an effect? Has MOT and service on thursday, so if anyone has any idea of a part i may need to order or what the mechaninc should be looking for would be of great help? Cheers, Tom.

Pretty much what I've said to him, he's recently unemployed and a bit down in the dumps, I don't want him wasting his savings on nothing. He isn't the sales kind of guy, but is confident he can make it work. It's a big risk, but I guess if it pays. Off then.he'll be laughing. Certainly more research required on his behalf. Just seems to good to.be true to.me.

Snakappeal.co.uk Anybody heard of this company? My brother has convinced himself to set up a franchise with them, I don't see how selling sweets for charity can generate £700 per week income for 1 person! They look to be genuine, but I'm just concerned he's setting himself up to be scamme?

Car used to belong to a guy from Scotland, Wrighty i believe. but i bought from a garage in Newcastle Where he part chopped his Zed. I think the Black Rays look spot on, each to their own I guess. I've not seen any side skirts that i think look right yet, maybe once i've seen some fitted in the flesh. Hopefully Uprev and plenum in the summer if i get saving!

The spoiler and bumper are only £350 together, take off the price for selling OEM bumper and it's not really a big outlay for a big difference in looks.
