I have spent many weeks vacillating over which PC I would like and where to buy it from and which graphics card is good for my needs and which hard drive and which cooling is good etc - the list is as endless as it is confusing. I've been to many websites but always come back here as it appears to be the most configurable but I still can't decide.
I would like a PC for mostly multi-tasking (not gaming - never been in to gaming) and generally need a fast good performance PC . My budget is under £1,000. I'm in to music, graphic design, photography - multi-media if you will.
The spec below is what I have attempted to conglomerate but I really need pointing in the right direction ;
