Tower: £400

Processor: AMD A10-6700 APU with AMD Radeon(tm) HD Graphics
Installed memory (RAM): 6GB

That's not too bad! Was it a Laptop?

The processor looks nice, 3.7 GHz, Quad, if it's in a desktop and not locked, you could probably OC that baby into the 4.0s safely.

I'm not a fan of McAfee though. Their quality has deteriorated over the years. No biggie, an anti-virus is an anti-virus. 🙂

Desktop PC, I may upgrade it in the future.
I'm not a fan of it either but done deal with pcworld and got £50 of McAfee for a year license.

Like I said, Antivirus is Antivirus! That's a pretty sweet rig, especially since you can upgrade it in the future! Not like you need it though. 😛

First of all Gratz on the new computer, thats not some bad starter specs, the only things i would add would be

* Graphics Card (Stick with the AMD get a nice Mid - High range)
* Upgraded Cooling (Doesnt have to be water cooling but get some decent cooling as stock cooling can be problematic)

Thats just me though, its what i would have used for a gaming rig but i read in an earlier post that you might upgrade in the future but again its your choice :L i dont want to influence anything

hahahahah antivirus really??? they dont really work and they convince people that they do. by the time an antivirus company will figure out what is the virus, the virus would infect hundreds of pc. and now really people dont bother with infecting windows pc only android. an microsoft essential would be a better deal if you ask me
