Hi guys, made several baskets of my own, now would like to see some of yours! £450, will be used for video editing, browsing, office etc.

Future proof too, got to lsat a minimum of 3 - 4 yrs!

Cheers

PS. For my Dad, not to replace my Phenom :)

I mean everything besides monitor...

If you have a case you can use, DVD PSU etc it would help a lot.

Does he need discreet graphics?

Reason why i ask is because video editing would benefit from Quad Core processor and a big hard disk, and i ma trying to make the best bundle possible.

Total: £452 without shipping.

Motherboard would need to be checked for compatibility though, haven't checked it myself. You could change the processor to a Tri-Core 720 and save some money too, or spend more on the motherboard instead, or get a discreet graphics card.
