Ok thanks. Really have no idea about graphics cards, how much difference is the following two? Doubt I'll need it for games, as I said probably PES but thats about it. Is it worth an extra £76?

DUAL SLI 256MB nVidia™ GeForce 8600GTS
SINGLE 768MB nVidia® GeForce® 8800 GTX (add £76.38)

Looking at this Dimension 9200 at the moment

http://configure.euro.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?b=...26&s=dhs&~ck=expbuy3

No price difference between the two processors available, except one is Viiv. Anyone know what difference there is between the two?

You can save £67.50 if you would rather have a 19" monitor over a 22" one.

No 22" Wide Monitor [Included in Price]

Dell™ 22" Black Wide Flat Panel (E228WFP) - UK/Irish [add £123.38 or £3/month1]

Dell™ 24" UltraSharp™ Wide Digital/Analogue Flat Panel (2407FPW) - UK/Irish [add £493.50 or £13/month1]
They are the monitor options it has. Not sure why it says 'No 22" Wide Monitor", instead of 'No Monitor"?

Have a good monitor at the moment don't really need a new one.

There are ways to get more PC specs on the Dell site than the ones they clearly display.

From what I can see, it is £37 cheaper than the one you linked to without a monitor, even with an upgrade to the same hard drive, and the same graphics card (which, oddly, is a free upgrade).

How do you do that? Seen your link but what do you have to do to get the extra options?

On the main Dell Desktops page http://www1.euro.dell.com/content/products/category.asp...s1&l=en&s=dhs&~ck=mn just select under the heading "Product Family", click Dimension, then customize and buy, and you get 4 to choose from, instead of the 1 on the main page.

I had, but then dell changed their offers, which effectively put all their prices up on thursday (for example, that £759 quad-core was £699 before), so i'm trying to wait until next thursday before ordering, in hope they drop them again... however, it is getting to the point where I can't really wait much longer.
