I'm looking to make this build cheaper and if anyone can find any compatibility issues with this setup?

Thanks :)

edit: Oh, and since this info might be useful, I won't be gaming or using any intensive productivity apps like photoshop or video encoding programs. I just want this to be as fast as possible at everything else, web, archive extracting, ms office, 1080p video.

Yes I realized I just forgot a HDD, assume it's on the list anyway lol

if you plan on sureing the web and thats about it a i3 and H67 will do just fine, will save you cash as well

btw how do i post pics of screen shots and ill show u my recomendation, much cheaper and shoud perform well for the tasks u wish

PC: Prnt Screen while looking at wanted image
2. Open Paint
3. Ctrl + V
4. Save to desktop
5. Go to Imageshack.com or equivalent
7. Chose file to upload, click upload, get 'direct link' URL
8. Paste said URL into the 'insert image' dialogue box for this forum, it's under the smiley face in the advanced reply menu.

Mac: Cmd+Shift+4, drag over selection that you want to take a screenshot of, it will save to desktop, then upload like would for PC

@skylineboy, yeah I was thinking it may be too much and that just going for the k series for overclocking may be pointless greedyness, I should probably go for that CPU you suggested or a dual core i3 2100. An SSD would be amazing, it's probably better to get an SSD with the money I could save on a cheaper CPU considering the circumstances.
 
wow, thanks for those suggestions, I will take you up on the case/psu and ram :D could save some great money there, thanks!

everything else was pretty much what I had refined my order to aswell :P

Well, it's defiantly a lot cheaper, probably a lot faster, where it matters anyhow. :)

Thanks guys, hoping to get word on that PSU/Case for £23 though, seems to good to be true.

Hopefully if everything's okay I'll be sticking to this spec. Unless someone thinks they can make it cheaper!
 
I will when the time comes :)
Anyone have any idea how I could find a benchmark to see the speeds of the OCZ agility vs a standard 16mb cache 5200rpm HDD?
 
sorry my pc still wont show me that buskets, and is probly telling me lies now.
ill be quite and stop suggestions for now on untill i get this thing fixed. just to prevent further bother

again my appologys about this issue (never had it befor, quite annoying)

lol don't be so sorry, you've been plentiful helpful :)
