Yes
No
Not bothered
I know this isn't technically hardware but i notice that everyweek there are lots of ive got £*** what should i buy threads.
Now i was wondering if we should set up a thread that has the best buy of that week for certain amounts like £350, £600, £850 etc.
Now i know it wouldn't solve everyone as some people want gaming or others HTPC but wouldn't it cut down on some of them and help alot of people.
Truth be told, i think some people like the "what should i buy with my £5 pocket money" questions.
- Another poster, from another forum.I'm commenting on an internet forum. Your facts hold no sway over me.
System as shown, plus: Microsoft Wireless mobile 4000 mouse and Logitech Illuminated keyboard.
Sennheiser RS160 wireless headphones. Creative Gigaworks T40 SII. My wife. My Hexus Trust
It's been tried a few times and always goes the same way unless the person creating the thread is dedicated enough to keep it updated.
Even I have kept myself clear of such a thread as it gets a little dull. I prefer the question threads so we can just tailor a build to a specific person and their budget
If it was a weekly HEXUS maintained feature though, and we simply contributed our thoughts.. that would be something very different.
I suggested this last year, and many others before me, i reckon if a few of us got together and organized it, maybe a proper hexus page, with a nice layout would make it a success, more recognition for hexus too
It's 4.98*
Sounds like a good idea chaps, I'll support this
Good one for the Bargains section imo.
Sound idea.

Perhaps then we'll have to see if the guys at Hexus would do one and like Mike said we contribute out thoughts.
But most people don't say "I want to buy any random computer related object for £x", so what's the point?
I think you have to change Buy into Buys. And then it becomes a lot of work.
this would only take a small modification to the today only style of offers too
Sorry guys; love the idea, but I don't see that it's practical: it would be near enough a full time job to take a weekly comparison of all component types across all etailers and put together a report just on pricings, let alone trying to make some kind of objective decision on which one is best to buy; the listings would be out of date within a day or two as stock came in and out and etailers changed their prices; and each thread would probably devolve into a discussion of why some other manufacturer's product is *actually* a better buy despite costing 10% more.
Besides, the current system of people starting threads if they need advice on building to a budget works, and IMNSHO is quite fun, too.
How about best budget builds of the week? For example a £300, a £500 and a £750 build for general use with an option of AMD or Intel cpus?
as long as I'm not doin' it
Exactly.. feel free AGxM
as long as I'm not doin' it
It won't change much over single weeks though.. a month maybe makes more sense.. and then we will just forget about it lol
