Who thinks this one is cuter?:

Also never use a stock PSU, they always suck except when they don't
Edit: This one is plain old J Bear

Plus Graphics Card I assume you mean anything with a higher price :P
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/134694# is that one any good? Its DDR3 though so it wouldn't work would it?
That's a PSU not a Graphics Card..Quote:

you have got 600 quids worth of a pc and bought a £50 quid graphics card :S which is your playing games is going to be vital!
If your going for Sapphire ATI I would recommend the radeon 4870
Edit: bare in mind that the 4870 1GB is around 120 quid....
Maybe you should look for a manufactured pc here:

just a suggestion :D
I know, but Nick said I would need a different PSU too.Quote:

Any ideas guys?

For the spec I would like though Elliot I would be looking at £1,500+!
EDIT: For operating system should I go for:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/167589 (Windows 7 Professional)
OR
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/167597 (Home Edition)
Basically: What do you get with Professional that you don't get with home?
Just make sure it's 64bit. All the Vista copies are the same, except for Ultimate which seems useless (even though I use it).
Get Home Premiom of 7. And pre-order it - it's £50 not £80 or whatever.
For a graphics card look for an ATi 4850, 4870 or 4890. Ideally thr 4870 or above. PSU you want a decent branded one. Probably about 500-600W.
Something like one of these:
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132563
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/134696
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/127861
Don't but a cheap PSU, it's not worth the trouble/risk.
actually it really wouldn't be 1500Quote:

I wouldn't get 7 just yet, for a new pc anyway has just after you get your OS set up the way you want it you will have to move it all again when 7 actually comes out. I would recommend Vista 64bit Home Premium or higher.
EDIT: o and btw I just remembered, as your using 8 gigs of ram you will need a 64bit operating system otherwise it will only recognise 3.8 gigs of ram tops making your other 4.2 useless and unused to you, even if you got 4 gigs of ram it would not be maximised without a 64bit os.
