    It's not that price though. At that price it's got no O/S, it's not built etc..

    YoYotech are a london based company and were part of Hexus until very recently

    Well, had a support forum in the Care section, yes. Unless you know something I don't, they weren't part of Hexus, as such.

    Thanks for clearing that up. I like the way you can customise the pc a bit better than Dell's attempt although I dont normal buy new rigs I just get the bits

    Re: great value gaming pc only £499

    yeah, but someone building it and a company building it who can claim full responsibility for it are different things. Some people need pre-builts. I know I did until I plucked up the courage to build my own.

    -- NEW RIG --
    CASE: Antec 300/ MOBO: ASUS P5Q Pro/ CPU: Q6600/ RAM: Corsair 4GB XMS2/
    COOLING: Xigmatek Heatsink 120mm, 2x Xigmatek 120mm w/ Fan controller/
    GFX: Sapphire HD4850/ PSU: Corsair HX520/ HD: WD 640GB w/ VibeFixer
    DISPLAY1: 22" Neovo 3ms/ DISPLAY2: 32" HDTV/


    Check out my Youtube Page for Funny Video series I make (10,000 Subscribers) and a look at my rig

    i agree its still much cheaper if you can build your own and installing your own operating system .most of the time you only have to upgrade mbd pro and memory you have the rest already still cheaper if you can build your own if confident enough.
