Do you need an entire build or just mobo, CPU & RAM??

Thanks for that, an entire build is required and I want to say an integrated should be sufficient I would suppose or as you see fit.

Do you have anything you can re-use?

Case, HDD, PSU, optical drice...?!

Does that inc monitor, mouse, k/b & OS?

*Update:*

Without Monitor, mouse, k/b & OS:

Thanks for that Yes It does not include the Monitor, OS etc. Just the Base Unit. A quick question though about the processor although I am a huge AMD Fan, How much gain would an i5 3330 have over this if any?

The i5 is a great CPU, but the AMD A10-5800k has an integrated graphics which is a lot better than the i3/cheap i5 models. Paired with the 2133 RAM, you get great graphics if you decide to play games like BF3, Skyrim, Crysis. You can also add a discrete graphics card if you need to later on, or hybrid xfire a 6670.

I've re-spec'd as I included the wrong ram in the post above:

Thanks Once again, I noticed the Motherboard says maximum of Memory Support: DDR3 1066/1333/1600/1866 SDRAM Would it handle the 2133 of the specified ram though?

Thanks all for the Input, I ll persuade him to spend the Extra 50 to go for the i5 setup else AMD it is.

Thanks once again for your time.
