Hello, I am looking at getting a desktop computer put together and have fiddled around with a bit of the spec (though admittedly not much). I am currently trying to play Call of Duty 4 online, but my video card is archaic and so the time has come to look at a new system.

Is this a decent setup? Is there anything there that sticks out as letting it down or would you suggest anything different? I am using the drop down selections from a website (I don’t know if I am allowed to post the site so that you can look at available options?).

Any opinions gratefully received. I love computers but sadly not skilled enough to consider putting one together myself so not an option for me unfortunately!

Edit; forgot to add, this computer set up comes to £600 with delivery and VAT taken into account.
