Desktop PC Recommendation

[ovalcitizenjr]

Hey guys, hope you don't mind me asking for a quick recommendation!

My laptop is on it's last legs sadly, and in the near future I'm looking to buy a desktop PC. What I'll be using it for is word processing and general internet browsing, as well as using it to capture gameplay from my Xbox 360 (nerdy, I know :P) via something like an Hauppage HD-PVR.

I'm pretty sure any desktop would do for word processing and internet browsing it's just the software for the capture device/some sort of video editing programme that I'm concerned about.

My budget would probably be around £250, though I'm not entirely sure if this will give me a PC that will be for my needs! I have a monitor etc already so I would just need the actual computer.

Thanks,

Chris

Have a look on http://www.cclonline.com if all you need is the base unit without monitor, keyboard etc.. You should get a whole lot of machine for your 250 quid..
