Prices?

very simalar mate,roughly 1700 euro.

Help needed ASAP peeps,need too order now

I dont get it. you have a ton of options that you dont choose... (edit: ok put in e-code thing.)

Probably get dell, for the options selected are superior to the HP's.

p.s. get the gtx 280, and now dual 9800gt's. Leaves you room to upgrade and takes out the hassle of SLI; if you can afford the extra cost. I wish dell would add more options like a GTX 260...
All in all you could make this computer for a lot cheaper, but i'd say go for Dell.

cheers lads,I know the spec list is all over the place,It would be the second package I was picking.
