i got a q6600 from scan for £157, well worth it i think. can get 2 gig kit of ballistix 8500 ram for around 65 quid from misco, bargain. my mobo is a gigabyte gap35ds3r, works fine now and was cheap but wouldn't advise it as had probs with it that are common for this board. so best avoid. i'll post a link for my case when i can find it. only 30 something quid and got a 350mm fan!!!!!! quiet and cool.

Hiya m8

I would recommend the following (based upon what I am currently using Wink)

I have a E6850 Intel CPU but if your wanting a quad go for...
CPU £149.21
Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition" 2.40GHz (1066FSB)
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-161-IN&groupid=701&catid=6&subcat=

I have this motherboard and have been very happy with it with no probs -
Mobo £82.24
Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 & DDR3 Motherboard
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-086-GI&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=

Memory £32.89
This stuff is really good and very overclockable, also cheap:)
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-058-GL&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=

Case £92.81
Antec P182 Super Midi Tower Case - I have one of these babies it is super silent and very well built.
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-070-AN&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=

Other musts
Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound (3.5g) £7.04
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=AC-000-AC

Akasa AK-965 CPU Cooler - Nice cooler (ditch the supplied intel one) £12.91
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-041-AK


TOTAL = £377.10 (giving you some pennies left over for maybe a soundcard or a romantic meal for 2 Wink)
