Hi

Sorry, I'd do it myself but I am at work and have a class abot to come in. Can anybody recommend a CPU, mobo, memory and GFX for £300? They appear to have the rest of the parts.

Many thanks!

What tasks will the system be used for?

Not too much, but generally the best they can have for £300. It is just to replace a faulty unit.

Yea, but for this budget you can either go for a (relatively) nice CPU and integrated graphics (good for CPU heavy tasks and applications) or a budget CPU and OK discrete graphics (for gaming). Which of these do you want to aim for?

Seperate display card will be great, thanks!

How does this look?

If you want more cpu power and less GPU power, this would also work well:

Both of these should be within budget with your free delivery.

Cheers for you help. I will be buying from elsewhere so the delivery is not costed into it.

Many thanks for you effort!
