the bottom one for £635.96 add the videocard HD6850 for £53.33 its a much better card over the HD5450



Intel i5 is much better for gaming vs the AM3 bulldozer and you save a little money. however the only game title that CPU intensive is battlefield 3 as the CPU does the light shading (no idea why). I am running an AMD dual core 2.0 Ghz and max out Starcraft, Diablo 3, and Syndicate (last 3 titles i bought) at 55+ FPS good luck.
