Budget Spec Pls

[holymoly]

Hi all,

Am attempting to put together a system for my kid and he has £250 to spend.

He has a case, powersupply, kettle lead (haha),monitor, keyboard, mouse and headphones already.

Would like to go 939 and pci express so that future upgrades are possible.

Thanks.

Hi,

Im gonna teach them to be good and earn their graphics card lots of lawns to be cut and cars to be washed.
All they really play is cs 1.6 cs:s, cod.
So yes mainly gonna be used for games... and they dont need to powerfull a Gcard to run those.

The case is a beige one that i got from work and the powersupply is a Q-TEC 450W which sounds like a jet engine.

Thanks guys.
