800 dollars, given the current exchange rate thats about £6.75 right? should be able to buy a VGA cable or somethin

anyway about the computer???? anyone?

and i was not speaking of personal pay for each person, we get brought down by idiots who dont save at all and use credit cards like they are going to die if they dont used them everyday. I was saying total money thing, i thought that was called Gross Domestic Product (econ isnt my strong suit when it comes to terms - but i can do the math problems)

I was looking at Comp Power .com or something like that earlier i cant find it now, but it had a TB of mem, 500 GB ram, nvidia 6400 motherboard, centreno 2 CPU, and i think i would add a Radeon gaphics card, so if anyone know which graphics cards are the best i would like to know. the total of everything along with $200 worth of free stuff which i plan on selling back on amazon comes to 940 -200 = 740. so its not too bad, but if anyone else knows of a better place to build comp im all ears

oh and this is what i was talking about, aparently the BBC or whoever wrote that aritical wasnt aware what GDP stands for, of course wiki could also be wrong, and i know that the EU is higher but europe does have hundreds of years on the US in the way of development and industry. but they still arnt technically a country, and from what i here lots of people are happy about the EU and others are pissed

of course the vatican which isnt on the list would trump them all due to them own a lot of shit and never spending any money of there own... just tithes

what the BBC artical is talking about it is the average yearly income of its citzens which Luxumbourg has been leading for years.

Tbh in honest in my quick look around your not going to get the best graphics card for that price so do you need it for gaming

But for some reason you can get a quadcore, 4gb memory, 750Gb HD and a raedon 2600 (Okish card but dont expect it to run crysis)

Got sidetraked by 749

but id get something like the above and put in this card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161218 seems quite cheap dont know why.

Got sidetraked by 749

8800GT is a good card for around this price range
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227050

Is a quad core really needed? Go with the dual and save some cash. You can always put in another HDD when you have more money... unless you have a desire to download as much of the internet as possible right away.
