Ok I've been messing about with Ubuntu for a bit and decided I want a Ubuntu + XBMC based HTPC or Nettop to play media, browse the web, downloading and some light gaming.

I could just get a Acer Revo R3610 with 4GB Ram, 500GB HD and Windows 7 HP for £280 but I'm concerned it might not be powerful enough. So i was thinking could i build my own more powerful Ubuntu box for a similar price?

I already have a hard drive and i don't need a OS so can anyone spec me a system for £300 or less?
