Building a PC - Need help

[Oleh]

Okay as you may know my pc decided to kill itself in november and i havent had any luck since so i decided for my birthday (in july) im going to use all my money to buy a new pc.

All i want is a list of parts which are optimised for speed/coolness (temperature) and quietness.

i have around £400 to spend (when the time comes that is)

I only need the tower.

If you could please list in the order e.g.

Tower - (link here) - (Price here)
Motherboard - (link here) - (price here)

You get what i mean.

Thanks for the help - in advance

Case + PSU - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/135101 - 57.99
Motherboard - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/191059 - 77.44
GPU - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/173708 - 61.93
HDD - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/173804 - 63.90
RAM - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/178943 - 83.30
ODD - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/145450 - 14.99
CPU - http://www.ebuyer.com/product/166519 - 52.03

Comes to £411, should be fairly quiet, I think, but if you can stretch to more, fit silent case fans and a silent CPU cooler

Thanks man ! - I forgot to note i already have a AMD X4 Quad core Phenom 9650 so i dont need to purchase a cpu.

Thats an AM2+, so I think it'd need a new motherboard and therefore new RAM too. I'm a bit unsure on that, so I'd let someone who knows a bit more than me find it.

I think http://www.ebuyer.com/product/159073 would do for a motherboard, and as for RAM, you'd need DDR2, so you'd use something like http://www.ebuyer.com/product/148859

I think these should be OK.

Seeing as you might have a bit extra with not having to buy a CPU, look at specifically designed quiet cases. Perhaps something like this one: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/167439 would do, as it also comes with a PSU.

What would you be using this pc for? :)

Well Mainly Whatever people use pcs for but i need it to have some ram so i can convert movies in quick time for my ipod

So, internet browsing, iTunes and movie converting?

Use the GPU, HDD and ODD from my first post, and the Mobo, RAM, Case and PSU from my 2nd post, and you'll have a half decent system.

Animating
Graphics
Fighting
Airports
Gaming
Hospitals

Now yu see that really didn't answer my question :P Basically are you using it for aming, or just movie converting and media? E.G. Do you want a media and home entertainment pc? :P
