Hooii guys,

I'm looking around for a new PC. Not a 100% sure i'm getting a new one but i'm weighing out the options.

So this is me asking for suggestions as i'm not a prof at this at all.

Price doesn't really matter. The cheaper the better of course but i want a good PC which will last for quite some years. Nothing to crazy obviously.

Monitor: Acer H223HQ
Sound Card: SPDIF Out (Creative SB X-Fi)
Speakers/Headphones: Steelseries Siberia V2
Keyboard: Dell Keyboard
Mouse: Logitech G500
Mouse Surface: Steelseries NP++
Operating System: Windows Vistaâ„¢ Home Premium (6.0, Build 6000) (6000.vista_gdr.090805-0102)

Rather buy a pre-build PC just to be sure everything is compatible and just cba to deal with all the hassle. Don't mind spending a few extra pound for it.

Btw, 250 stable on 1920x1080 is a must :P

your current pc is good enough for another year or so ( I think you can play all games medium - high )

Just change win vista to xp or w7.

BTW: If you're playing cod4 mostly get a nvidia card , ATI gets lower fps in cod4 ( and I had a resolution bug with 2 ATI cards I used , my resolution doesn't change my fps in any way , i can play with 800x600 or 1280x1024 yet the fps is not changed one bit, wasn't the case with my first ATI card)
