    How about you tell us what kind of games you want to run, or what you want to do specifically. I do emphasise the specific bit. No point telling us you want to game/edit videos/photoshop, with out telling us exactly what you're up to.

    You're asking for a lot of hardware for very little money being honest.

    If you are not concerned with mobility then maybe your best bet would be getting a gaming rig .

    Because this is about as close a match for your specs as it gets and you'll find it much cheaper elsewhere.

    Look Here, and Use Parcel Motel to get it delivered to Ireland.

    Tesco Outlet on Ebay
    You can choose to bid for one in an auction, but i just selected the 'buy it now' option. They are a decent price. They are refurbished, and they all come with a years warranty. For the spec and the price, with the warranty it's where i'd buy.

    Hey Folks, the little tyke (we're related) neglected to mention that he's talking in pounds sterling rather than euro and I believe his budget has increased to £700 recently so he should hopefully have a few more options.

    Naturally being a wee teen his options on where to buy are limited, he can't look online so is really somewhat limited to the high street. If he's a little slow to engage with you please bare with him as he's not a regular forum user so this can seem somewhat daunting I'm sure.

    100% go to PCSpecialist. Youll get your moneys worth. Im gonna assume this is something rare and he wont be spending 700 a year or whatever. Dont pay money for a brand rather than spec.

    700 would get you a beast.

    i7, 8gb ram,750gb HDD and GTX660M.
