I've used Novatech in the past, but not had great experiences with them, plus they are not nearly the cheapest site in general, but that's another story.
An Intel Core i3 is a rebadged (budget) dual-core Intel Celeron aimed at the "value", i.e. cheap end of the market for system builders on a tight budget.
Seeing as there are Intel Core i3, i5 & i7 available, you would expect the Core i3 to be worse technically than the i5 or i7 wouldn't you...and it is.
I'm sure the new system will be fine for purpose, but please don't expect any fireworks.
I take computing so don't expect much from this system compared to my friends Alienware or other stuff. I've only got an Atom netbook, so having an i3 core (even if its just a rebranded dual core Celeron) with windows 7 and a graphics card and FOUR (i.e double my netbook) gigs of ram is like the shit for me.
I found novatech to have been very good, delievered on time and everything works
