    I was considering buying a Dell Xps 8500 for €739 (i5-3rd Generation Intel® Core™ i5-3350P processor (6M Cache, up to 3.3 GHz) / 8GB4 Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1600MHz / 2TB Serial ATA (7200RPM) Hard Drive / AMD Radeon™ HD 7570 1GB DDR5 Graphics Card.
    However I have come across a few recomendations for Hardwareversand.de and they have a pre built ASUS CM Series CM6330 at €699 plus delivery / Intel Core i5 (3rd Gen) 3450 ( Quad-Core ) / 8 GB (max) - DDR3 SDRAM - 1600 MHz /1 x 1 TB - SATA-300 / NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 2 GB GDDR3 SDRAM
    Which of the above systems is the better value. I like the two year warrenty but dont know how good oor bad the company is. Also no idea how Asus compare to Dell.
    I would appreciate any comments on Hardwareversand.de, has anyone bought from them and what was the experience. Is it possible to do an online bank transfer direct to their bank account. ?
    My PC is not used for games, some video editing but nothing much else. I was happy with my Medion MD8393 quadcore but I have given up on the fault as published on this thread is located at: [URL="mhtml:{7AE2B72C-B985-43DB-80F8-16E7DEE1CE0B}mid://00000002/!x-usc:http://boards.ie/tre/2056792182"]ttp://boards.ie/tre/2056792182[/URL]
    Thanks all you experts out there.

    You could probably do a better build yourself. Something like a 3570K for the CPU and leaving out the graphics could allow you to push more money into other areas.

    Hardwareversand have served a lot of people around here well. Yes, you can do an online bank transfer. Just be care that you fill out the boxes right.
