Hi, been at this since xmas!

How does this look?

No idea what to do for ram, suggestions?
Plan to use the onboard graphics on that motherboard.
Case has the PSU also.

That is a complete build right? (Minus the harddrives)

Any comments/ suggestions /whatever welcome!

Thanks.
 
Looks good, nice budget spec, the RAM you've specced looks fine

BUDGET! How very dare you!

No that was the idea :D Its replacing a amd 3200 with 1gb of ram :eek: Which funny enough cost more than this, with out the £220 screen! Scary prices.

Where can i post my spec me a desk thread :( + network my house thread (Joke)
 
It is but youve got no gfx card there and afaik that mobo doesnt come with onboard, also I kinda figured he wanted small, microATX

Touché thrifty. I figured he probably has an old graphics card lying around somewhere. I appreciate he wanted small, but I don't think the 300 is that big. Lastly, and most importantly, I think that Antec case he chose is soo fugly, that he shouldn't go with it. My opinion of course. :)
 
looks good, the ram if fine mate, what is the main use of the system going to be.? and what OS are you intedning on using.? :)

A windows of some sort (64bit) not sure which yet.
Main use just random "work" + media playback.

I think this is a better spec personally :)

I need/want something a lot smaller (its for a bedroom) and as far as i can tell the case i picked is a pretty good size and comes highly recomend from silentpcreview.com and that limits me on motherboards. Is the OCZ ram that you picked better? If so i will swap it out! The dvddrive for the amount it will be used i will just stick to the cheapest one they have :D

Thanks for the input!

Ok mate, your decision. :)

Both sets of RAM are good, I chose the OCZ because it's £10 cheaper.
