Hi,
I am wanting to buy a new computer to replace my old one which is rather slow and worn out. It will mainly be used for calculations, along with some occasional gaming (though I don't mind if I have to turn the graphics settings down a bit).
I am looking at the following specification. If possible, I would replace the case with the HAF-X, as discussed in the Case subforum. Any comments?
