Also it might jus tbe worth waiting for the re-release for ps4 and getting it then

Niiiiice! didn't realise I5s had dropped that much in price. I haven't needed to upgrade since i built this rig quite a few years ago, as all I played was CSS. But I'm gonna look into upgrading it slowly I reckon, and see that price list has made me want to upgrade even more aha.

Please, PLEASE that will be the worst decision you will ever had made  ???
Haha, custom built is the way to go. You get them alot cheaper and are 99% of the time alot more powerful than pre-builds bought. Pre-built computers tend to focus on storage space and ram, and if you got what you were thinking of, it is likely to have an integrated card  ::).

If you wanted sometime just let me know and I could build you one on pc part picker, fairly easy to build and took me about 3 hours my first time.
And yes, I had some inheritence money that I was given, and instead of a holiday that would only last a few weeks why not get that. ;D

I am going to drive like a mad-man until the cops chase me. Then will run a high speed rampage of a chase. Missions are okay, but I like to wreck shit.

I would say about 50-70% graphics dependent depending on your card. This is the main reason that you NEVER go with pre-built computers, they seem to focus on Ram and Storage space, because that's what people who don't know about computers want. "I've just got a new computer, It's got 16GB of RAM AND A 2TB HARD DRIVE!!!! But it has an intel integrated card...". Haha, of course ram and storage space matters, but anything over 8gb ram is easily enough, and 2tb is just excessive...

Custom builds are the way to go! £400 and a bit of knowledge you can build something capable of running all of the next gen games ;D
Anyone want a PcPartPicker let me know ::)

Cant you just install a high end graphics card in thoise computers? Cutting the cost of building from scratch considerably?

I cane into a bit of money today, its looking more and more tempting that ima fix my 360 and buy gta haha

Most do but there are some that don't, but that's not the point;
If you look at it this way, building custom is usually cheaper than the same PC, but with things you don't need. Say you got an i7, 16gb ram, a 2tb hard drive (which you are unlikely to even need honestly), but then a shitty graphics card. If you lowered the other specs and got a high end gpu, you will probably have more than twice the gaming PC.

It's just making sure you make the most of the money you have and get it alot cheaper, but if you have plenty to spare then go ahead  ::)
Plus, building a PC is nearly as good as receiving drugs in the post ;D
