Re: New PC spec?
It's the GPU that keeps hitting me. It all looks quite reasonable until you add that bit in. One builder only offered high end cards that added 35% or so onto the price.

A dedicated graphics card. They start from a few hundred quid but the high end ones cost up to £2000. My card cost me £750 and totalled my build to £2100.
Only really needed for gaming or video editing/processing.
