Well the PC's thread seems to have vanished so i have to ask here.

Is this a good time of year to buy a PC or should i wait?

My price range is 1k-1.5k€.

How does this machine look?
- Antec Nine Hundred
- Lc Power 700W modular
- Asus P5E chipset Intel X38
- Intel Core2 Quad Q6600 8MB cache
- Cooler Artic Freezer 7 pro
- Gráfica Nvidia 8800GT 512MB GDDR3
- 4GB GSKILL ddr2-800
- Disc 320GB sata2 16MB cache
- DVDRW 18x
1260€

or this one:

- Antec Nine Hundred
- Lc Power 700W modular
- Asus P5E CHIPSET X38
- Intel Core2 Quad Q6600 8MB cache
- Cooler Artic Freezer 7 pro
- NVIDIA 8800GTX 768MB GDDR3
- 4GB Gskill ddr2-800
- Disc 500GB sata2 16MB cache
- DVDRW 18x
1450€

Anything i should be careful with? haven't updated my machine in ages so i've been off the market.

out of those two i was maybe thinking about the one with the GT since it's still a bit of a gap money wise. but you can always tell me better

Cheers in advance for the help

Only difference is that second one has a bigger hard-drive and a slightly (about 10% faster) graphics card.

well that i know lol.

put i'm going to move a 150gb second disc in so the disc difference is irrelevant.

So the GT is worth the price difference in your opinion?

Not in my opinion it isn't.

Save yourself 200 Euros and get the cheaper one.

So yeah, asked a question last night, thread is gone :/

Thinking of upgrading from the 4200+ AMD to a 6000+ AMD.

Would it require a format? Would I just be able to whack it in and it would work?
