i should save this in a text document.....

Antec Sonata II case w 450 W PSU £70.80 93403

Suitable mobo, nforce 550 or 570, not much difference £89.99 113844

AMD socket AM2 either 64 3200 or x2 4000, everything else is just those two but overclocked £40 - £140? £74.16 111287 for 3800

1 gig/ 2 gig ram, go for higher clock low latency rather than XMS - value is fine £147.63 LN11596 at scan, 2 gb corsair XMS £120.48 LN12201 for the value, slower clocked

7900GT, either one or two depending on your budget £184.46 LN15169 gigabyte, including zalmaan HSF, 2 of these

Maxtor SATA II harddrive, 250GB + (for 16MB write cache) - makes for a very easy instalation £49.22 LN12655

and if you are looking for a monitor, then go for the LG 1940 PQ or 1740 PQ (19" and 17" respectivly)

it r teh shex

ok, edited with prices

number product codes refer to ebuyer, and ones with LN are from scan - add about £100 for shipping, CD drive and windows

makes £900.27 =]

How much do you want to spend? I might as well just recommend you buy some bananas without a budget.
