I hope I have put this in the right section. Please tell me what you think. It is similar to another user I found on this site. My budget is up to £1000. I don't need a monitor, keyboard and mouse. Current PC cost is £629.06 inc vat.
The PC is for mainly games only and I will dual boot both XP and Vista. My questions are:
Is it a good spec?
Should I get a better Graphic Card?
Do you have any recommended changes?
Will my hardware work for vista?
Will I need a sound card or make do with the one on board?
Do I need a wireless network card?
