My m8s wife is wanting a pc to replace her old one as `its too slow`i think its fine but hey ho
price £300 max+- a little
used for surfing and FB and those FB games,jewel something ,flash games
How does this look?
Anything i missed?
 
Think she wants some...new toy/bling
I re installed everything a month or so back and was inmho running fine
iirc her old pc is a single core 2ghz with about 2 gig of ram mech hdd and W7
Probable slowness is the internet speed at her house but try explaining things like peak times and congestion to them:rolleyes:

Could drop the cooler and it's only £14 more for 8GB RAM in comparison to your spec so might as well do it

256GB SSD, mATX board and case so doesn't take up much room
 
Thanks guys.Will call them later today and give them a choice :)
Probably go for the larger size case/s as it is easier to work on :)

edit Why the G3220 over the pentium k i picked? :) oh and why opt for a after market cooler,pc won`t be overclocked
Good call on the ram.will add more

Well all arrived and built now...finally
They are coming to collect today,OC the cpu to 4 Ghz,nice little stable boost for her.Must say I was not impressed with the case,felt tinny and the power on button looked and felt wobbly.not as good a feel as the reset button
