My first deal so please be gentle. Thought this was pretty cheap, surely capable at 1080 and 1440p gaming. Reviews on website seem positive. Obviously building this yourself might be cheaper but for those who are not confident then this is better and comes with a 3 year warranty. That GTX 1070 is supposed to be equal to last years Titan X, a card which costs more than the price of this whole PC.

Does not come with OS but you can either add that as an option (£75) or install yourself.

Don't be daft, it really isn't.
Got any actual evidence to support your insane comment?

Decent enough deal. I'm REALLY not a fan of any prebuilt PC. I'm not upset about H110 either, it's FINE for what this rig is. Most people can't be arsed with overclocking properly.
I would always suggest you build your own for these reasons:
1) I will help you
2) You can customise it more to your liking
3) If one part fails you don't have to send the whole thing back
4) The warranty on individual parts is often 3 years, also you don't have to post the entire computer off at your own cost and worry about having is smashed up in the post.
5) It's very, very easy. If you can build IKEA furniture you can build a PC.
If you want to build your own for around this price I would recommend this:
CPU: Intel Core i5-6400 2.7GHz Quad-Core Processor (£144.00 @ Aria PC)
Motherboard: MSI H110M PRO-VD PLUS Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard (£47.89 @ More Computers)
Memory: PNY Anarchy 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory (£39.55 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Sandisk SSD PLUS 240GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (£56.99 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£25.00 @ Aria PC)
Video Card: Palit GeForce GTX 1070 8GB Dual Video Card (£377.94 @ Aria PC)
Case: Thermaltake Versa H23 ATX Mid Tower Case (£26.48 @ Aria PC)
Power Supply: EVGA 500W 80+ Certified ATX Power Supply (£42.48 @ Aria PC)
Total: £760.33
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

It'll cost you a little more but you'll get an SSD.

This is a decent price considering the components themselves probably cost that much.
A few things to note
1. Gigabyte motherboard is h110 basic model so no SLI.
2. It's a HDD, I would pay extra for an ssd,makes all the difference
3. Motherboard limited to 2133 drr 4 ram, although faster speeds doesn't make much difference unless in CPU bottlenecking programs
4. No OS but that's easily rectified for £15 on eBay
5. Warranty may be void if you add in extras and open the case
6, no wifi included, 550psu corsair but uncertain if 80+ rating.
All in all a very decent gaming PC which will last a few years.

No windows installed so you need to factor the cost of that in, you can get it cheap yourself and install it but those people who can do that would probably also build it themselves. AWD from what ive read are a decent company but you need to add another £74.99 to include the windows operating system.

well no you don't actually, you can get it dirt cheap elsewhere...and no, people won't necessarily build themselves, I used to, bit now don't have time or inclination.

Um, you can get Windows a LOT cheaper than that from a 3rd party. £7-£20 most likely.

Free if you buy a "legitimate" copy from ebay for about 10 quid, then complain it for some reason is an education version and not as advertised, and accept the offer to remove negative feedback for a refund..

Not a bad price considering it comes with a 1070 and is already built

^^^ what he said :smiley:
I am looking for a new setup, may build it myself but if theres a good deal about then I would consider it. Definitely a decent price. on AWD's page the graphics card is about £370 alone, if it's their cheapest inno3D one.
For me, I'm after an H or Z170 board, so will be passing on this, but for a good priced system this was definitely worth a look :smiley:
Happy New Year

Very good deal , you can add customize it to your own spec and even with windows 10, still a great price.

This looks a good deal to me, looking at pcpartpicker all the component prices seem to have gone up over the past few weeks so the oft used refrain on this site that's it's cheaper to build yourself isn't neccesarily true at the moment. Also the prices shown at pcpartpicker often seem to be out of date so that when you click through to the website in question they are actually higher.
