So I finally decided to go for something cheaper. Here is the deal:
Case
STYLISH PIANO BLACK ENIGMA MICRO-ATX CASE + 2 FRONT USB
Processor (CPU)
AMD PHENOM II X6 1055T (2.80GHz/9MB CACHE/AM3/) - (Special Offer)
Motherboard
ASUS® M4A78LT-M: mATX MAINBOARD, DDR3, USB 2.0, SATA 3.0Gb/s
Memory (RAM)
4GB SAMSUNG DDR3 DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 2GB)
Graphics Card
NONE, I ALREADY HAVE A GRAPHICS CARD
Change to: 1GB ATI RADEON™ HD5770 - DVI,HDMI,VGA - DirectX® 11
Memory - 1st Hard Disk
500GB SERIAL ATA 3-Gb/s HARD DRIVE WITH 8MB CACHE (7,200rpm)
1st DVD/BLU-RAY Drive
24x DUAL LAYER DVD WRITER ±R/±RW/RAM
Power Supply
450W Quiet 80 PLUS Dual Rail PSU + 120mm Case Fan (£29)
Keyboard & Mouse
Logitech® Internet 350 USB Keyboard (£9)
Warranty
3 Year Silver Warranty (1 Year Collect & Return, 1 Year Parts, 3 Year Labour) (£5)
Price £382.00. Doesn't include the Graphic Card. I think in total it is £467. Plus £50 for a second hand monitor with 6 months warranty from a high rated seller from ebay and £60 for a second hand Windows 7.
Yeah I know I shouldn't get Windows 7 in second hand, specially since its only a £20 difference, but its a high rated seller so I'll take my chances. I should be alright, only problem is I've to install it myself and get the updates, plus I can't have Office, but I've been using OpenOffice.org for a long time anyway.
In total it is £577.
The monitor is this one:
Acer P195HQL - 18.5" Widescreen LCD PC Monitor
Could have I done better?
EDIT: Oh and Windows 7 is full edition, comes with 32bit and 64bit, so I can install the 32bit on the old desktop.
