Labour)
Delivery STANDARD INSURED DELIVERY TO UK MAINLAND (MON-FRI)
Build Time Standard Build - Approximately 10 to 12 working days
for £647. my question is do you think this will be able to cope withmost of the main current games like black ops 2 battlefield 3 the witcher 2 etc crysis 3.
If it won't what would you recommend changing, I think I'll probably have to change the hard drive because it's not amazing but the power is like 440watts on a 450watt power supply so obviously if I were to increase anything I'd have to get a higher watt power supply. I'm not sure if i'd need 600/750/800/ or more to be honest I like computers but I'm not incredibly computer literate. I was thinking of getting an additional solid state drive.
I would be wanting to record fraps in the background so I know that would slow it down a bit
