Help with New Spec ?

[Yarrum]

Hi, decided to finally upgrade my 3 year old system which has the following.
AMD 3000
Radeon X800
1 Gig Ram
200 gig IDE Hard Drive
Antec P160 Case
Samsung 19" Monitor
XP

The only thing I will be keeping is the monitor and I will pick up a mouse/keyboard/speakers no problem.
I'm looking for a decent spec machine which will run Vista in all it's glory, surf the net and play the odd game or two. Not fussy for any overclocking but it would be a bonus if it run quiet.

I have a budget of around £700, any help would be great.

Thanks

Thanks, I have placed this spec together, does it look ok ? I presume everything would be compatable. Would I also require extra cooling bearing in mind I will not be overclocking at this time.

Thanks again.

should be ok with the standard cooling if you're not overclocking for the time being.

i'd swap the hard drive for this :
Western Digital Caviar SE16 400GB 4000AAKS SATA-II 16MB Cache

more space and the aaks series seem to be very decent.

need to get confirmation that the GTS will fit in that case.
