    Hey guys. I came here today for the purpose of the website...to recommend PC's to users.

    So here it goes:

    First of all, my current PC and Specs:
    HP Pavilion DV6-2113sa Entertainment Notebook PC
    AMD Turion II Ultra Dual-Core Processor @ 2.5Ghz
    ATI Radeon HD 4530 Graphics with 512mb DDR3 dedicated
    500GB HD @ 7200rpm SATA
    4096Mb DDR2 SDRAM (2 Dimm)
    15.3" Diagonal BrightView HD LED Screen
    6-Cell Lithium-Ion Battery
    802.11b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth
    LightScribe Super Multi 8X DVD+RW with Double Layer Support
    ExpressCard/54 PC Card Slot
    Genuine Windows 7 Home-Premium 64-Bit
    Expansion Port 3

    Reason for looking for new PC:
    My current laptop's motherboard has been in need for repair, which it has got, but unfortunately HP did nothing about it. And the other thing is that it has become much weaker than usual. (E.g. It has become a lot more slower than the normal speed)

    What I am looking for a Desktop PC which can handle/which has/which is:
    - HD games (E.g. GTA IV, Call of Duty 2 etc)
    - Multi-Tasking
    - Fair amount of RAM (Min. 4GB preferred)
    - Not expensive nor cheap (£350 - £500)


    Thanks so much guys.

    Thats about 800ish USD. If you could sport another 100 pounds I would with the dv7tqe. GREAT laptop, I7, 8gb, 6770m. Great all around/gaming laptop for at a pretty decent price range.

    I actually also forgot to say that I only want Desktop PC's with AMD Processors & Graphics Cards.

    Thanks!

    you are in the wrong place. Notice that this site is called notebook review. Allso, definitely build a computer not buy one. they are simple to build and you get a whole lot more for less.
