Any help on getting a new pc would be appreciated.

Hey all, I'm posting this up here because I would like some help/guidance on purchasing a new pc with psu in mind. I'm by no means technologically minded (not even sure if that was spelt right) and I don't really use my pc for anything other than browsing the internet, storing music and pics and playing psu. I don't dl much at all. I've wanted a new comp for ages and I only have about £350 to spend. That's about $488. What sort of specs would you recommend? Do you know of any decent sites from where to buy? Any other info would be very much appreciated! Thanks.

I don't really know any UK computers store, but there's one that sells things for many european countries, Pixmania.

If you don't know much about computers, or if you don't know anyone that could mount the pc for you, if you want to buy an already made pc...maybe this:
http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/1573...eme-y8520.html
This computer is not bad, probably can run psu with frame skip 1.
Probably in other stores there might be some better options...

If you can or if you know someone that can mount a pc, buying each component separately would be alot better, it would result in a computer with alot better specs than an already made one. The only disadvantage is that it doesn't come with an operative system x.x
Processor: Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5300 (2.6GHz, 2MB L2) - £67
Motherboard: MSI P45 Neo-F - £71
Memory: G-Skill 2x1GB DDR2-800 CL4 - £27
Graphic Card: Sapphire Radeon HD4830 512MB GDDR3 - £90
Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar GP 500GB 16MB Buffer - £49.90
Power Supply: Corsair VX550 550W - £75
DVD Drive: LG GH22NS40 DVD±RW 22x - £18
Case: This one is more a personal choice
Total: £397.90

If it's too much, you can change the graphic card to a Sapphire Radeon HD4670, which costs £60, and the power supply to a Corsair VX450 450W, which costs £56. With the graphic card and power supply change, the total would be £348.90 (not counting the case).

BTW...do you need a monitor too?
