Hey guys, its been a while since i posted here, i've not had a new build since about 3-4 years ago and i think its time for a nice upgrade,

My budget is about 750 minus delivery to northern ireland, so about 725ish i guess, this is what i've come up with, opinions, suggestions and ofcourse insults about me being out of the loop for so long all welcome!

Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.33GHz (1333FSB) - Retail - £113.96
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit - £39.94
Asus GeForce EN8800 GT 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail - £170.36
Abit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLi nForce 650 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard - £81.06

and ofcourse a new monitor, since this tiny monitor from 1999 is killing me

Thanks!

PS its intended to be a budget gaming machine, incase that wasnt obvious :o
 
i plan to SLI in the future, so i went for a semi decent mobo, i dont need raid, but the mobo seemed featured and fairly cheap.

edit: no plans for OC at the moment, aswell
