    Well for christmas my grandad will be buying me and my bro a new PC, he has left us to choose which though. I have almost no idea about what to get though tbh. We will be using it for gaming mainly...I was thinking about this MESH Computers - Award Winning PCs Since 1987

    Is this computer any good for the price? Or can you recomend a better PC for roughly the same sorta price or cheaper. Thanks in advance :)

    That looks a high end system, it should do you well for gaming, especially with SLI graphics.

    To improve the quality further, you can even buy a PCI Sound Card as well!

    It's a pretty good system. The only thing that they do (and this is to cut the price down) is use the 7600GS. These aren't terrible, but instead of using one single high-end card, they're using a pair of lower-end mid-range cards in SLI. My suggestion would be to have them alter the configuration to house a single 7900GS, 7900GT or 7950GT (in order of lowest to highest performance). You can snag a second one down the road for cheap, and boost the performance.
    Now, this isn't to say you can't do this with the system as it's pre-configured on that page, but SLI only works with to video cards sporting the same graphics chip.
