Dell totally screwed up my order and after waiting 2 weeks I've cancelled it !

Budget is £650ish.

Mainly used for Internet but would be nice to have it quick for CAD and a nice big screen. Any suggestions please

Thanks.. Loks like you have to add graphics card and sound ? Will the basic cheap ones be ok

 

Once you add a hard drive, graphics card etc to that PC alone you've posted, its above budget

 

It doesn't have windows xp either ?

Tbh a complete package would be easier rather than having to pick stuff and not too clued up on PCs.

Heard i7 is a good processor ?

 

What about this, plus get a monitor similar to the one danneth posted above?

Or how about a "rasberry pi" (the £15 pc)

yes add the the £19 for the graphics card, fine for what your after unless your into high end gaming, you don't need a dedicated sound card either

 

Read the spec before posting, its all additional stuff to add to the machine, to try and get you to upgrade

he said £650 ish, the comp comes out at 670-680

 

XP comes with windows 7, use the drop down menu, you can either upgrade the version or take it off and save £50

 

Ended up calling Dell back

Got one of these touch sreen ones that will never get used by using touch screen

Thing is, it has a blu-ray player... but when I out a blu-ray in, it spins but the PC doesn't recognise that there is a disc in. On pevious PC's the disc would just load up... This one doesn't even show up in wondows explorer.

Any ideas please? Its as if it doesn't know that it has a blu-ray player ?

 

erm .. hate to say fone dell

and no idea sorry

 

Have a look here mate.

TBH i know you had issue with dell but a dell XPS would suit you perfect for internet and have graphics to handle the odd bit of cad.

Try Euro PC they sell dells cheaper and if you ring up they will tell you whats in stock.

 

Thanks gents but it's been delivered so a bit late lol

 

shocking service, i use to use them all the time, till i had some faulty goods off them which they kept sending me back as ok, i ended up having to drive down to bolton and getting them to test them infront of me and they were infact f00ked. never used them again after that.

 

Hard drive has packed up ! Hardly used the thing !

Company Monday to repair it... Pile of wank dell!

 

Wow that's bad luck mate

 

Yep.. Not end of world tho providing they sort it Monday and it's all good !
