    Hey guys,

    Was just wondering what do you think about http://www.custompc.ie/ for buying a PC from. I want a very powerful PC to do gaming and graphics programming as well as engine programming. I'm coding in C++ so i will be tackling the hardware. I have built PC's in the past but i'm not sure will i order my own parts from the likes of amazon or just buy it from this website?

    Thanks.
    -Darren

    It's literally the worst place you could get a machine from. Your best bet is to copy the first post on this thread, and fill it out, post it back here. Someone can spec a build for you.

    Just had a look off their Intel i7 Haswell Ultimate Desktop for €2675 :eek:

    No SSD unless you pay €169 extra for 128GB ? Are these guys having a laugh with that price. :eek:

    Pretty much like for like on HWVS is €1800 with a copy of W7.

    Do what Serephucus said and you will get a way better build.
