    Mesh Home Desktop PC - cheap gaming PC for under £380 with 1GB HD4850!!

    I just saw this PC on Ebuyer:

    For a cheap gaming build it looks decent for the price. Of course it maybe possible to do a better self build though.

    IIRC Mesh use HEC PSUs which are not that bad.

    Quite a standard computer, isn't going to be anything special for high end gaming.

    What can I say? I'm stuck with an AM2 (Yes AM2!) Motherboard with DDR2 RAM, and a HD 4830.

    You could built a better computer than that.

    This is the cheapest components I have found for my wishlist:

    HD 4870 1GB (£70)
    Gigabyte GA-M68M-S2P (£36) (AM3 Phenom support ready)
    DDR2 1GB x4 PC2-6400 (£20)
    AMD Athlon II x3 2.9ghz (£40)
    Coolermaster HAF 922 (£63)
    Corsair TX650 (£70)

    It is pretty decent. I already own the other components needed.

    Custom builds always seem cheaper if you can find the right deals.
