AM3 Socket PC Help

[siravarice]

Had a root around myself and found I could build a new system really cheap. It would either be for me or for my girlfriend (I will take the better one obviously).

I already have RAM, HDD's and a power supply and a case.

Can people find stuff cheaper than I can?

I found:

£77.12 - AMD Athlon 2 X4 @ 2.6GHz

£65 - Gigabyte GA-MA770Y-UD3P

Optional:

£58 - OCZ Platinum (2x2GB)

Apparently the base Athlon X4 is faster than the Q8200 which is what I already have. If I save a little I would get a Phenom X4 instead.

Suggestions?

it alright! I fixed her computer, not sure if it was the ram of the slot the ram sits in, when i took her ram and swapped it for mine, my computer still ran fine and hers now runs fine too!. I gave her one of my 2gb sticks and took her two 1gb sticks. Thanks for the help though, still might think of building one as a HT system.
