Hows this spec?

Just about to order a PC for my mate, mainly for movie watching, work and a bit of C&C Generals and other light games. Already got Mouse, speakers, and OS. Any opinions (especially on the Barebones System / stuff we've forgotten?

Cheers

Good news - Seems like a decent spec, more or less what I'm running now.

Bad news - you forgot a graphics card.

Although it may cost a shade more and not look as cool(matter of opinion I suppose) I'd prefer the Vintage AH1 system as it uses a 9600 based solution, I don't think that the onboard SiS will be as good. Other than that I can't see anything really wrong with it

Yeah do that, SiS integrated graphics can barely run 2d

Also get the Samsung Spinpoint 250gb, same price but loads more space, fast and quiet.
