Obviously the CPU would need to be clocked a litte, but from what I have heard it gets to 2.6Ghz or so without even sweating-wouldn't be a bad little machine otherwise!
 
Ohh i like a challenge.

My effort. Nice big HDD, faster CPU, (again would need overclocking) and a bit cheaper. Spend a bit more on a better graphics card and your laughing !!
 
Ahhh, I saw the 250gb one for 34 quid but didn't see the 500gb for £35, so decided to have a new one for £30. Humm, not sure i'd fancy having a B grade HDD tho...
 
No that's why I didn't put it in mine. I also missed out that B grade mobo as I wouldn't really want to risk buying one.
