Hi guys! In first place, excuse my English :-/ I'll try my best.

I'm looking for a new computer, max £380 / 614$ aprox. I want it for a bit of everything: Internet, movies, Photoshop, some design and games, but no requiere too much in any aspect. Gaming, I am not very exigent, but maybe when I have it I'll beging to play more, so I don't want it short very soon.

A friend has recommended this, what do you think?:

-Memory: Kingston HyperX KHX1600C9D3K2/8GX - RAM 8 GB (2 x 4GB) PC3-12800 DDR3, 1600 MHz, 240-pin

-Hard Drive: Seagate ST500DM002 Barracuda - 500 GB

-Power: B-Move BM600W (600 W, Over voltage, Negro, 1460 g)

-Case with Fan:CiT Black Widow Mesh

I meant that they do not have future. Also too much? You cannot add 30 Pounds more?

Yes, I can, but firstly I thought in 330, later 380... Always saying "only a bit more", you know. But I want to put the limit in any point.

Well, thanks you both, I'll think about it!
 


I didn't say anything about adding thirty quids.
