im using a 750gb hd
and a core 2 duo clocked at 2.5ghz

Sorry slush, i accidentally left that in from the template, it's gone now, haven't looked at that part yet.

Current price is around £440, which is about 550 euros, or $890.

I actually discovered, thanks to Senseito, that i need an NVIDIA anyway, so I've replaced the Graphics card with the one I'm looking at now. take a look.

I like Intel, but you pay for the name, really.
i might upgrade the HDD later on, but 320 GB should be fine for now, i also have a 500GB external anyway, so it's not hugely needed.

Compu, I'm not really gonna be using this for much gaming, the occasional COD4/Gears game at medium res will be fine for me, and obviously photoshop, and Video playback etc.

Yeah, pretty pleased with my finds. I already have a case that i can use, so that saved me a little too.
If i need another GB of RAM, i have 2x512MB sticks sitting around, i should be able to slot them in too...

haha, thanks man, just got to get the cash now!
