    Buying a computer (not trading - advice)

    So I have a €750 euro budget (translates to $1080 or £664) to buy myself either a computer or laptop. I will pretty much only be gaming/botting on it; and It'll be on for at least 14 hours/day. It has to be a PC; I already have a Mac and Linux (where Linux is just there for testing/programming and the Mac is really my working computer). Any suggestions? It doesn't have to be a super computer, but I will have a steam account, definetely runescape bots and maybe other games like WoW, Diablo, The Witcher etc (not bots but to play with).

    So yeah; post away your suggestions. I really do not have a preferred brand, but the rules are no apple computer pretty much :D.

    Also, before anyone suggests simply installing windows on my linux, it's a really crappy Novatech laptop which I bought for like €160 lol.

    Total: 784$, you still need a case, they are cheap try finding one that you like and can afford.

    This computer will do anything you want, boot time will be amazingly fast and applications will open at the speed of light because of the Solid State Drive (SSD). If you want more memory to store music/movies whatever you want to store, you can add an HDD for that and still use your SSD.

    If you want to spend more, I will suggest a better video card and ram.
