Final spec check for mate's PC

Curly · 27 Oct 2010 at 22:18

After a few weeks of umm-ing and arr-ing my friend has finally decided upon the following spec. He'l be using it for internet, movies, music and personal photoshop stuff.

Were sticking with the CPU and motherboard, other than this would you alter anything to improve it without changing the price by much? Or will it do just fine?
Will that wireless card work happily with any router? (think he uses what ever router o2 sent him)

Thanks in advance!

Wireless card should work fine.

Onboard the motherboard
