looks fine.

as per doom re the psu.

do you need an o/s ?

unless your planning to get a "K" processor and overclock you could look at the H61 motherboards.

also, whats the main uses for the pc.

Ha, how did I manage to miss out a PSU? That would have been somewhat disappointing.

As far as I know, I'll just be being used for playing Sims, going on Facebook, that sort of thing. A bit of light Photoshop work for her art A Levels. Nothing massively demanding, however I didnt want to go any lower with the GPU, just in case some new Sims game come out.

I doubt I'll over-clock it, if it goes wrong I don't want to have to do a 120 mile round trip to fix the damned thing. We've a spare Win 7 Home license she can use, so that's covered.

Thats a nice setup Doomed, thanks!
