    £300-400? Just a wild stab in the dark.

    The basic Dell recommended Dimension 8400 system costs £599.

    For $400-$500 here in the USA I could build a box that would smoke it brand new. £300-400 sounds high to me unless it is in as new condition, and even then it would be closer to £300 I believe.

    Considering Dell outlet prices and the prices that Dell chuck 8400's out at now and then I would say just over £300 if your lucky.

    Yeah, but that's assuming that people who buy computers from local papers know what they're doing. I wouldn't assume that they do personally.

    The Del PSU isnt great and the Mobo is locked down, so no overclocking.....:-(

    Plus im in the middle of configing myself an Isotope System from Scan. I want to move my system onwards to a P4 Sck 775 and start using PCI Express. Best do it now rather than falling too far behind.
