Just wanted to say HI - Joined a few weeks ago and had some great advice on the spec I was putting together. Finally taken the plunge and ordered the PC so now got to try and be patient waiting for it to arrive!

I don't play games but do lots of video editing and some photo editing as I film weddings and other events and use office software (excel etc). I'm not a computer hardware expert but class myself as a fairly experienced computer user.

I hope so! I'm at the "waiting patiently" for it to come stage at the moment - doesn't time drag when you're waiting!!!! Mind you, also looking at a new monitor and being tempted to spend too much money on one - DELL U2413 ........ well, such a great PC needs a great monitor doesn't it!?! :no:
