Right then peeps, i'm getting towards having the last of the bits delivered for the kids upgraded pooter and was just wondering if anyone had any hints, tips or sound advice?.

Sugo SG01S-Evo
OCZ Modxstream Pro 600w
MSI 785GTM-E45
Phenom II X4 940
Silverstone NT06-E v3
4gb Geil Black Dragon 6400

Plus enough Xilence 80mm fans to fill it!. Was gonna carry over their 320gig hdd but thinking on it, i reckon i'll replace it with something bigger, the sata dvdrw can stay but my main worry is their gfx card.

They have a 512meg 8800GT at the mo, but due to the PC (Aopen XC Cube) i had to get a single width card. I was wondering if i might be better off selling that on (as they still apppear to be worth about the same as what i paid s/h) and getting a card thats two slot and will exhaust out the back of the case?.

Also, what would be considered a decent upgrade from an 8800GT these days, but still cheap...ish...

Depends how much you want to spend really.

£118 would get you a nice HD5770, and would be a good step up.

Below that you're really looking at second hand.
 
Thanks mate, just looked and seen the card your on about...am i right in thinking they don't look 'hugely' long?.
:)
 
Nah, they're not long at all, around 8-8.5" IIRC. I think the 8800GT is around that kind of length anyway? :)
