    You might wanna consider building your own...it's cheaper, but more work, gotta learn a little about it too...

    - AMD 64 series+ probably 3200 coz if you go up the processors gets more expensive to suit your funds - that will cost around £130ish
    - ASUS motherboards that support AMD64 processors
    - 1GB Corsair RAM PC3200 - get 2 sticks of 512RAM and run in Dual Channel or you can get 2x256 ones to get 512mb RAM
    -If u gona have a gaming PC i advise you to get Nvidia GeForce Series at around 6600 - pci-express, if you are hc gamer get the - 7800GT
    - Get a reliable 350-500watt PSU, good stable
    - I recommend getting a SATA II harddrive as they are faster compared to the normal SATA and ATA hard drvies - around 80-200GB

    More info can be given just depends what you going to do play games, just use PS or just a normal home PC :D I live in UK and you stated pounds so were the same :D i want to build one too ill get the sites in a few minutes got about 3-4 of them

    Exactly True Ameriacans or canadians getting their components from newegg.com and so many other sites whereas Uk ones only got like a few :( like ebuyer.co.uk and some other companies
