Whats he going to be using it for? Is he going to overclock?
Its a decent spec for the money i was just wondering if he might be better off going for a slightly cheaper mobo and better graphics? 3850pro for example for £58 would be a lot better for gaming (well if Ocuk had stock atm it would be) assuming its going to be used for gaming. Like i said an idea of what it will be used for would be helpful for recommending a spec.
