I'd go for the first bundle if you need a bundle, but why not pick parts separately?
 
I would get the Asus/Geil bundle but is it really that much cheaper? given the option I would get seperately-

Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - Retail £173.99 (£204.44)

Asus P5N-E SLi nForce 650 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard £69.99 (£82.24)

Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-5300C3 667MHz Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864AA663) £109.99 (£129.24)

Sub Total : £353.97
Shipping cost assumes delivery to UK Mainland with:
City Link Parcel Next Day (Delivered Mon-Fri)
(This can be changed during checkout) Shipping : £8.25
Vat : £63.39
Total : £425.61

better system and £50 cheaper
 
Have to agree, would be much better to pick parts separately and the ones suggested above are very good ;)

SLi is a feature, you don't have to use it. The motherboard is good because the Ram can be unlinked from the FSB so overclocking potential is there easily. As Nickg says you can get the P5B Deluxe but I don't think it offers anything extra really but it cost more. :)
