Please keep this about the pc itself and the hardware parts. Im not so sure about the graphjics card. I always thought 256mb usually ment slower memory. And the FX is spose to be a complete flop however iv never tested one.
I'll inform you all and post some benchmarks on Tuesday/Wednesday.
PC arrived today, just been reinstalling everything. I'll post some benchmarks later but its been playing Hal Life 2 everything up as high as possible wih no lg so im hppy for £200.
@VB123456789101112 - It came with a reciept wih the same name i sent the cheque to....so not stolen. PC was brought 16th Feb 04 for £1200.

it seems way to good be to be true. I wouldnt take a risk on the comp, 400 bux may be pretty cheap, but if the comp is gonna break 2 months in, it might not be worth the trouble

i would never buy a built computer, especially from a random person... rather buy from a company like dell or HP... building a comp is just cheaper, better, and more control over your comp... and at least you'll know your comp will last and not break down..... (i hope)
