SORRY TITLE MEANT TO BE £650 BUILD

Hi, last year i built myself a PC and spent around £1k. Thanks to all your help as without you i wouldnt have got such a good spec for the money!

Now its time for my brother to have one, i however have lost touch with the market so not quite sure whats hot and whats not. Anyway this is what i got for him. His budget is £650.

Cheers guys!

LGA775 wont work with an AM2 mobo

Could be a pretty funny moment though,....

Could save a tenner on the psu (you dont really more than about 450W from a well brande psu)

Probably worth waiting for the graphics cards just to see if these cars go down more too...

Finally big aftermarket heatsink+fan is probably needed too (Artic freezer 7 is like £17)

Also, change the case to an Antec 300 and the RAM to some Geil PC-6400 (only £30)
