hey i'm going to buy a pc at the end of january what i'm looking for is a good futureproof system that will allow me to do the usual - games, music and video and maybe a bit of work.
my budget is around 700 - 750 pounds.

i've found this pc on www.pcnextday.co.uk after reading a review of it in computer buyer magazine. could someone please tell me if its good for the hardware that you get, any other pc's that are better and any upgrades that i could add to make this an awesome pc.
thanks
joe

Yeah that PC pretty much rocks and would even be able to run some pretty demanding games. You'll be doing music, videos, and work on that thing for a long time to come, but for games, it wouldnt hurt to upgrade the video card and RAM in the very near future. Other than that, go for it, pretty nice system.
