I was happy with the performance of my HP. very reliable.
Dell's are nice, just make sure you max out the RAM and graphics card if you can.

Start off with a case... so type in 'silverstone' or 'aurora'..
Motherboard... Asus P5B or P5k ---dont ask me how i know this
Graphics: Geforce 8800gts/x... or Radeon x1950
RAM - 2GB anything...
HD... Samsung Spinpoint --500gb perhaps (only £60)
CPU --> e6600.... maybe or something more expesnive...
obviously u need dvd drive etc... also and Power Supply
