backpackant Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I got a decent one from PC world for £450 9 months ago. Check the min specs in the sticky, but mine now runs it fine (after some tinkering thanks to said stickies). Mine is: Dual 2 Core 1.5GHz processor 2GB ram 120GB hd SiS mirage graphics card (but it took a week to get the demo going - full game works fine now). Obviously the more Ram and the better the graphics card the more likely you are to have a working game and a great PC for anything else you might use it for.

mimland Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 If I were you and not so good at computers I would look around in stores, where there is staff to ask. They should be able to help you pick out a few models if you tell them what you need it for. When you got a few models to pick from you can always look around online for the same computer and see if you can get a better deal somewhere. As there is sometimes a very good chance of getting a better deal online also consider models that might be slightly over your budget in a store. Make sure the company you buy from is trustworthy though, doing a search on the net usually can tell of problems or positives that people have had with different companies.
