Hi Guys,

Just moving into the studio and looking at getting a PC an Monitor instead of using my Laptop.

What do you guys have at the moment.

Im looking for something with

4GB DDR
at least 500gb Memory.
Dedicated graphics card
HDMI output.
Wireless

Do you guys know of anywhere i can get a pc of this spec for around the 500 mark?

I was looking at just Comet as i have a comet card and able to ge the 6 months free option.

Credit Score aint that good at the moment so unable to get finance anywhere and credit card virtually maxed out.

so any ideas guys :)
 
Andi, pm me. Might be able to help you out mate :)

ah right, it might be easier to just get a twin DVI graphics card and get a DVI->HDMI cable if you want to output to a TV

Really handy now some GFX card can output sound to a monitor/tv through the HDMI, no need for a seperate audio cable.

most ATI cards support sound over DVI->HDMI using their suppiled adapter if you need sound

That still means 2 cables instead of one. I just said HDMI out is a good thing, DVI is old and has no benifits over it.

Head over to Palicomp
I the comp im using right now from there for only £250 (about a year ago)
8GB ram 320gb HD Dual-core 2.8Ghz

Been able to run iTunes, PS CS5 in 64bit, multiple IE's, MSN, and a game client all at once and never lags.

Didn't come with a monitor but they also sell them and they have some of the cheapest I've ever seen.
