So you're getting yourself a present for my birthday? Selfish, Boorz, SELFISH! 9th should be my day, not your new computer's.. =(

Actually dunno its gonna be the 9th now, getting it on finance over 10months and i need to sign the papers and send them back, lucky I can download the paperwork, sign it and send it back, saves about 4-5 days.

Hopefully i can get it all sorted and get the computer before i have to go back to work on the 15th =D

Go for a 5770 1gb imo, have one for one year and it pretty much rocks, Jupsik has one aswell I think.
But be sure the bottleneck in games performance is the video card and not the cpu The cpu has a dramatic impact on games performance aswell.

LE: Just checked that site you gave us the link to and the 5770 is 20% more expensive. Don't know if it's 20% better. Maybe around 5-10%.

the difference between a 5770 and a 5750 is that a 5750 will most likely not be able to play wow at max setting everywhere. (as in ogrimmar on rush hour u'll lagg) while the 5770 will manage it with about 37-45 fps.
Also amd just recently released the follow up thats replacing the 5770, so you can find the 57xx cards for stupidly good prices.

i mainly need it for the external video output since the current one sucks on that, can only get 1280*800 on the tv now and thats kinda anoying, also all movies and stuff have a slight lag when using dual screen instead of cloned so im guessing the vid card cant really handle it as i see it. but the 5770 was only 400SEK more so i might go for that aslong as it fits in the comp also need more RAM i guess and a harddrive so if you know anything of worth let me know

i basically looked at my computer, thought right i can play about £600-£700 upgrading or I could just go the whole way and just upgrade everything to something new and not have to bother again for another 6 years, in the end im gonna save money

whats your CPU? and im using a wester digital 1tb 7200 rpm 64mb, its quite fast, but nothing compared to an ssd, and its the only thing i hear from my case, (the case has giant holes on the sides)

[B00rz]

I have the same HHD as you jupsik, or it might be the one below cant remember but although its quite fast i sometimes find it makes quite a lot of noise if its being stressed and sometimes takes a while to spin up (I say a while its like 1-2 secs =P)
