Must have been a good deal, my 670 was £350... Personally, I'm not convinced that it does end up cheaper in the long run, it just depends on what your normal PC usage is. I have a laptop and gaming PC, so the gaming PC wouldn't exist if it weren't for gaming. But then again, I would probably have a more expensive laptop...

Anyway, I play on consoles more simply because their less of a hastle and great exclusives. I'm lucky that money isn't so much of a problem

Well my main reason for PC gaming stems from my interest in computing. As someone doing a computing degree its essential i have a decent enough PC for heavy amounts of programming, which means my PC is also an extremely capable games machine.

Plus, being a student, money is a bit tight and games are generally £10-£20 cheaper on PC 

It makes much more sense as a student, especially if a TV is hard to come by and it makes sense to take advantage of a powerful PC. Of course, PC games can all be had for £5 if you are patient enough...
