Im pretty sure youll be able to see them. -
AMD's Phenom totally r@pes Intels C2D quads plus their cheaper, so I'd say that's a good start.
I'd say stay away from buying a "package" with monitor cuz they always use that to mark up (U can probably find the same computer with the same monitor seperate and save another 150 bucks.) -

???? what do you mean..? which one? 1st or sec?
btw how do i check comp stats -
2nd one uses the Phenom.
As for the specs, they're listed on either page. You're off to a good start; I'd say searching for a Quad (Preferably either i7's or Phenom's) with at LEAST 4 gb of RAM. I'd say save yourself some cash and go with lower capacity HDD as thats another good markup tool.
If u look enough I'm sure you'll find a single tower with a Quad CPU, 6gb of RAM and a decent video card for around the 1000 mark.
I'm at work right now so I don't really have full access to the internet, but I'll google some models for ya either when I get home (doubtful as I'm reaaaaaaally tired) or over the weekend. -

Ok, so I was looking for some prices for ya and I gotta say, the webpage you found Is basically the ebay of NZ, the deals I find there are ridiculous compared to other computer retailers.
I've bumped into several awesome tower only deals, from about 800-1500 for a basically maxed out computer.
For a budget computer, I haven't found anything that beats:
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Computers/Desktops/No-monitor/auction-279695407.htm
AMD's BLK ED PHM 3.2ghz processor (A personal favorite), along with 4gb of DDR3 and your choice of 3 1gb GPU's
Construction on it seems decent too, and it uses an ASUS Mobo.
For a Pimped out tower I'd say:
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Computers/Desktops/No-monitor/auction-280212454.htm
The Tower alone would put u past the 1500 budgetline, not to mention that it's overkill for CF, but it would be hard to find any computer that can beat this for speed and price.
Oh, one last thing: All these are NZ items, have u considered shopping overseas and hacving it shipped to ya? Dunno what the curency exchange would be, but it may be worth it...(do keep in mind international shipping charges and the helluva long waiting time)
