Hey im specing a rig for a mate but am having trouble keeping it under £1200. He needs everything except soundcard and speakers. So far :
MY-058-GL GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400UDC) (MY-058-GL) 2

£169.95 £169.95
MO-003-BE Belinea 102035W 20.1" Widescreen LCD Monitor - Black/Silver (MO-003-BE) 1
£214.95 £214.95
HD-046-WD Western Digital Caviar SE16 250GB 2500KS SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM (HD-046-WD) 1
£44.95 £44.95
HS-003-SY Scythe Ninja Plus Heatpipe CPU Cooler (Socket 478, 754, 939, 940, LGA755) (HS-003-SY) 1

£24.99 £24.99
Subtotal £899.62
VAT £157.44
Total £1,057.06
on top of that is the asus P5B-D and E6400 (+£300). The only way i can see to get this rig under budget is by losing the 20" widescreen which would be a real shame, or downgrading the mobo to a DS3/DS4. B.t.w he's a gamer and studying music tech at uni.
O noes just realised i have x2 sets of the geil ram in the basket. I guess it's just over £1200 after all. lol.
Ok any alterations you think are worthwhile ?
