Hey guys,

So I fancy spending 5/600K on a computer all-in.

I've checked out one set of computer stores (opposite Homeplus in Gaya) and it looks like they've got decent components to put it together. But I'd prefer buying it all online... are there any Korean sites with 100% English?

The shops had pre-built systems which (if you bargain a little) should be pretty good for the cash.... would anyone recommend this?

Otherwise, any ideas for a reliable mobo, processor, graphics card etc would be cool.

Thanks for any help....

(Edit, just looking to do the usual stuff on it, nothing special)

If your computing needs do not include intense 3D applications/ video encoding or editing/ multi-threaded number crunching, then get a pre-fab box from the computer market. Haggle a little bit. Get a quote from one guy and show it to his buddy two stalls down and see if you can get a better price.

Thanks again dude, good advice.

I'll be bringing along my CT who speaks pretty good English so haggling will certainly be involved, and I'll make sure to get some type of guarantee for 6 months.
