Looking to build a home pc for just browsing, youtube etc.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x AMD Kaveri A10-7860K 12 Compute Core APU w/ Radeon R7 Graphics (4 CPU + 8 GPU Compute Cores) - Reta= £89.99
1 x **B Grade** Asus PCE-N15 300Mbps 802.11B/G/N Wireless PCI-E Network Adapter= £8.99
1 x Corsair Vengeance Pro Silver 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit (CMY8GX3M2= £65.99
1 x Corsair Carbide Series 88R Micro-ATX Case - Black (CC-9011086-WW)= £49.99

Total: £214.96
(includes shipping: £0.00)

Corsair CP-9020049-UK VS Series ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Power Supply Unit, 450 W
Asus A68HM-PLUS Motherboard (Socket FM2+, A68H, DDR3, S-ATA 600, Micro ATX, USB 3.0)

This stuff comes out at just under £300
Don't need a HDD as I have one already.

Anyone have any better ideas? I could go down the intel route, but I believe to get similar performance I would be spending a lot more?

I guess this would be a good choice?
Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB (2x 4GB) 2400MHz DDR3 or
HyperX Savage 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) 2400 MHz DDR3 CL11 DIMM XMP Memory Module - Red

I thought the ones i picked were 2400mhz ram, unless i'm mistaken?
Thanks,

You wouldn't need a 450w, any good 350w would do, you won't be pushing a dedicated graphics card so you can same a few quid on that. You can also buy wifi adapters new for a tenner so you don't even need a B grade item.

I saw the difference between 350 to 450 is only a tenner so I'm not too fussed about that.
Thanks for the advice chaps!
