CIS Benchmark Score

0.63 of 10 (details...)



How good would anyone say this is...

Chip Type: Intel Pentium 4
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Memory (RAM): 1 GB
Hard Drive Capacity: 120 GB
Brand: Advent
Primary Drive: DVD-ROM

GForce4 6600 GT graphics card SLi compatable with TV-/DVI out
Windows XP home edition OS
Loads of software including a full version of Microsoft office
Brand new wireless keyboard and mouse
Stereo surround speakers
Recovery CD and various driver disks

 

Sounds alright, depending on price, and the motherboad spec (as in for upgrading).

Graphics card ain't bad, but for serious games that will need to be binned. Windows XP Home is ok, not as good as Pro IMO (depending again on what you want to use it for).

Most pc's nowaday's come with a dvd burner. Full version of Office 2003 gives you stuff you probably won't ever need, along with most of the bundled stuff.


If that's more then £250 you've been shafted IMO

 

My machine is a P4 2.8gHz, with 1.5gb RAM and 2 drives totalling 140gb and I think it's a preety good system Works a treat for me, so your spec there sounds good

 

Mine was £200 second hand (ebay) and is a Dell machine. Ain't got a good grx card (on board 64mb card I think) but I upgraded the sound card (optical/digital 5.1 PCI card). It only came with a DVD ROM but I already had a DVD Burner. It was £200 tho for just the tower, mouse and keyboard - no monitor etc... Still I think it was a good deal cos it's the more "business" end Dell stuff (Optiplex) so a bit better specced than the usual home-aimed Dimension series (well, so a bunch of reviews and write ups on the net led me to belive anyway).....
