thanks.
yeah ok where can I get the parts, though?
www.ebuyer.com
Buy a motherboard costing around £50 with an integrated graphics card. Look for Asus, MSI or Gigabyte brands something like that. The hard drive willl cost like £40-45 (SATA) look for brands like Seagate, Maxtor and Samsung. Buy 2GB DDR2 RAM costing around £30 look for PC-5300 or PC-6400 and brands like Corsair, Kingston and Crucial are good. Buy a DVD-RW drive costing less than £20. Spend around £40 on a PSU. 450W-500W will be fine. Spend around £100 on your processor and than buy your case. Done :).
I'll make a list of some parts in a minute and post them.

I though server parts are different to desktop parts?They're not, it's just a computer with out a monitor attached and it stays on all day :P
Things like a decent graphics and sound card obviously don't matter though, thus the reason your going for mobo graphics.
Mobo: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/113965/ Doesn't have an integrated GPU so http://www.ebuyer.com/product/144594 as well
HDD: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/131301
RAM: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/131301
DVD-RW: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132560
PSU: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/131052
CPU: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/130485
Now you just need to find your case.

That GFX card won't fit in a 1u/2u case like he wanted.
