So, i'm planning on buying a custom built PC to replace the rubbish laptop i have now that is barely held together by Ubuntu. I'm going to the use the new PC for my A-level course work and some gaming hopefully, these are the specs im looking at right now:

Computer Case: NZXT M59 Gaming Case
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 (4 x 3.2 GHz) AM3 8MB - Black Edition
CPU Heatsink: AMD Heatsink & Fan
Memory: Corsair 4GB XMS3 PC3-10666 1333MHz (1x4GB) - Lifetime Warranty (DDR3)
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD 6450 - 1 GB - (XFX) - Silent - (PCI-E)
Motherboard: Asus M5A78L-M LX (AMD 760G)
Sound Card: Motherboard Integrated HD Sound
Networking: Edimax Wireless LAN 150Mbps (USB)
Power Supply: 700W PSU
Hard Drive: 1 TB (1000 GB) SATA-II HDD UDMA 300 7200 32MB
Optical Drive: LiteOn (IHOS104-37) 4x Blu-Ray Reader & 8x DVD Reader - Black (SATA)
Backup Software: Windows Backup
Monitor: 19" Widescreen TFT - Black - 5 MS

and this is all for £521 including VAT. Being new to PC's i was wondering if anyone had any advice on whether these are good specs for the price or if i could get some parts cheaper, thanks. Smile
