Computer Build

Hey, I just chucked together some parts on Ebuyer and want to know your comments/suggestions/tips, then I'll be buying this tommorow. http://tinypic.com/r/2r5ce92/5

It is mostly incompatible. Don't buy it tomorrow. I don't have time to suggest alternatives now though.

sorry i linked the wrong one :P here

Bump yourself up to the M4A77TD Pro. And I'd deeply consider you get an M4A89GTD Pro (also available with USB 3.0 for £15 more)

And get a better PSU. Corsair do good ones. http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132563 would suffice.

I'll be honest, at his budget, he'd likely get an i3/low i5. AMD is his best bet.

AMD Phenom II are very good.

If you're going AMD, get the new 6 cores.

Not necessarily. If he doesn't do something like video encoding on a regular basis, it wouldn't be worth it.

Get a Phenom, though.

The new ones are phenom's and are not much more expensive than the quad core versions (the lowest model, anyway). You can grab one for about £155.
