The best way would be bulding it for yourself, but if you're looking for a pre-built you can get the new Warhead PC just released by EA and Crytek.

If you really feel like building your own computer, do that. If not, I recommend a Dell XPS, although I'm not sure if you can afford a good one with 700 euros. If you cannot afford one, get a Dell Inspiron. My friend bought a pretty good Inspiron for only $800.

But yeah, if you only have 700 euros, building your own is a good way to go.

You have 700 pounds? Then scrap Crytek's machine, by the bets bloody thing you can get, with multiple video cards and a quad-core processor.

Man, I wish I could do that. :(

My bad =/. I'm not too familiar with foreign currency.

Well, 700 pounds is even better. I'd still probably go with building your own or an Inspiron, but I bet the other people on this forum know more about this than I do ;).

These days? I suppose if 'these days' means the entirety of the dollar's existance. Anyway yes you have enough to buy a nice gaming computer. I would recommend an XPS from Dell. Oh and get a desktop computer, not a laptop. Laptops you pay a lot more for a lot less and you can't change the video card a long with other problems. You could likely afford a decent XPS machine if the prices aren't more outrageous in Britan.
