Hi there,

My sister's computer is old and useless, have around £300 to spend for a simple base unit but could probably go over I suppose. Obviously don't need a monitor and such but will need a cheapo new keyboard and mouse.

Was hoping you guys could spec me one as I haven't really kept up to date with hardware and such in years :)

Cheers,

Edit: Will be used for games along the lines of the Sims, Black & White. Though mostly used for her photography/photoshop work I imagine. (Probably should've put this bit in initially really :P)

NOTE

Abit NO LONGER manufactures motherboards, so the MB will have little to no support
manufacturer warranty length is also questionable
