Hey guys,

I'm waiting on my delivery from here, its worse then waiting for xmas! currently on the 12th day and still in pre production :taz: I'll mainly be using it for video editing and maybe a small bit of gaming. what does anyone think of the specs?

I'm already thinking of getting a SSD just to run Windows, sony vegas and other editing programmes i use on a regular basis.

It's a kind of budget PC coming in at just over £600 wanted an I7 but saved money going with a AMD

Should be a half decent video editing machine. Obviosuy on a low budget you can't quite get all the nice things like a caviar black HDD and an intel CPU but overall it should get you through editing videos no problems.

I can't stand waiting it drives me mad lol, but apparently it's the best bit! Enjoy it.
