Finally decided on the following for my system, don't really play games, so mainly used for surfing, mail and general office work.

Need to keep it down below £250, so are there any improvements that can be made.
Is it worth putting in a cheap graphics card, if so what would you advise, passively cooled to keep it quiet.
