HI Guys,
My existing desktop is more or less on its way out and its time to get a new one (4 years is a long time in PC technology as i have discovered over the last few days).
I mainly use my machine for Movies, downloads, browsing and some "gaming".
I use the word gaming as its normally Football Manager, games from the Settlers series and stuff like Civilization.
I am wanting to upgrade quite a bit so i can plays like F1 2011 without a hitch or delay (i installed it on my current machine and it took 10 minutes to load the start page)!
I don't have any idea on where to start building my own (which seems to be the cheapest way) but i have seen this machine on Amazon and wondered what you all thought or if you had any other suggestions

I don't need a new monitor as my existing acer screen does what i need, i also have a LG LED TV that i can link up to the PC via the HDMI to watch movies etc.
Thanks all in advance
