As you can see from the pictures, the case is very premium and looks even better when you see it for real. This PC is a spectacular self-build with all original receipts and guarantees such as the 3 year one which came with the Intel processor. It can be used as a HTPC (home theatre pc), media server, desktop pc, development pc for programming, NAS. Very versatile. You could even use it as a very powerful gaming rig if you purchase a dedicated graphics card. It gets nearly full marks on every category in the Windows Experience Index as you can see in the photo, except for graphics which is understandable as it doesn’t have a dedicated graphics card. HD films, BBC iPlayer programmes in HD etc run like a dream on this machine. It is VERY fast. It can even handle the latest games, but not on full settings. You need a dedicated card for that. Fully loaded with a brand new install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. The best version you can buy! Only purchased 3 months ago, originally to be used as a development pc for a project I was working on because I needed a machine that supported dual displays. I have no need for it now. * Please note that the PC doesn’t have any optical media drives such as DVD, Blu-Ray etc. Everything I load onto the machine is via USB. Let’s face it, optical media isn’t really necessary any longer and is going the same way as the 3.5” floppy drive. You could easily buy an external drive if you need one though.
