Hello there well i am looking at possibly either buying a new desktop computer or upgrading my laptop - Which ever is both easiest and cheapest if possible. I enjoy playing a certain game online and when i play it my laptop seems to be working HARD to keep the air running through it because i know that it cannot really cope.

If i choose to buy a new Desktop computer i would be looking at some sort of gaming PC if possible within my budget ($2000) however i would be able to stretch it to $2500 if possible however i am trying not to :)

I was looking at maybe buying this PC here: It seems like a good PC for the price..any suggestions on it or would anyone know of a better one? http://www.noelleeming.co.nz/computers/computers/desktops/cpu-monitor/compaq-sr5340-wf1907-presario-sr5340an-19-lcd-monitor/prod99909.html

My current Laptop is: http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4107
The only thing i have changed on the laptop is i have bought another 512MB ram stick to bring my Total Ram to 1GB.


All help/suggestions is truely appreciated :).

I would prefer to be able to go into the store and preferably a store that is well established eg noel leeming, harvey norman etc. But computer shops like Atech and what not are appreciated also :)

Thanks in advance :)
