Looking to build a new system, must have the following

Core 2 Duo capable of min 2.4GHz
8800 GTX
22 inch widescreen
total min 500GB Hdd
2GB Ram min
Windows Vista premium


Full system incl speakers, mouse, keyboard, case etc

What the best for the money, cheers
 
Out of interest, if you are so specific about your requirements then why not just go the step further and specify it yourself?

Anyway, this fits all the requirements but I'd have to call it slightly unbalanced because I'd prefer to go with a faster/better CPU and a slightly slower graphics card such as the 2900pro which can be overclocked to around 2900XT performance usually.

Dual core, nothing from previous build as this is for a friend at work. Reason not specify myself is I have all AMD machines, have no idea with core 2 duo ie whats good and whats not - just told him I could build a better machine than an alienware for £200 less.

Want to up the chip as the 2180 is 2 Ghz, so will need to drop something else probably speakers (as I have a set somewhere).

Dont mind 2nd hand kit if there is stuff in MM - am keeping an eye out

drop down to a 8800gts or a 2900xt/pro then and get a faster cpu.
 
That one looks great, thanks. Have managed to get a mobo off the forums so that will save a bit. Now looking for bargains!
