I have everything apart from cpu/mobo/memory.

The budget I mentioned is just for the cpu.
 
ok, i've managed to extend my budget to get the i7.

PSU is a 600 watt decent one.

GPU is something I forgot about. What do you recommend?

The spec is:-

i7 920

6GB DD3 tri channel crucial ballistix ram
antec 650w psu
samsung sata 2 hd for o/s - 160gb

o/s to be decided on but probbaly win7 64 bit
 
It was an Athlon X2 of some sort with 4gb ram. While it dealt with sd video fine it struggles badly with hd avchd video.
