Can I get this spec any cheaper??

[Scottona]

Hey All,

I am looking at building a second computer (mainly for running World of warcraft) and would like to get the price down as much as possible, currently I have specced:

Intel Core 2 DUO E6300 - £110.44
MSI 965P NEO (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 - £75.19
Corsair 1GB DDR2 Value Select PC4200 Dual Channel Kit (2x512MB) - £82.24
OcUK GeForce 7900 GS 256MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI - £117.49
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 80GB ST3808110AS SATA-II 8MB Cache - £34.06
NEC AD5170 18x18 DVD±RW Dual Layer ReWriter (Black) - £19.96
Akasa AK-ZEN-01-BK Zen - £31.71
Akasa Ultra Quiet 400W Paxpower Active PFC ATX2.2 PSU - £41.11
Scythe Ninja - £38.76


Total inc VAT & Del: £550.97

Id ideally like to stay with the E6300, but the rest I am happy to fiddle with, is there anything I can change to get this price down (as cheeeeap as possible)

Cheers
Scottona

Will you be overclocking? I'd assume not given the specification so far, with that in mind I'd probably suggest this and save yourself £50 as without overclocking (and this system will still allow a bit) you won't notice any real performance difference.

Thought I was going wrong with the case and PSU, I have changed that and that seems all good!

Thank you for your help!
