Do you need a whole pc(i.e. case, psu, inards, keyboard, mouse + monitor) or what mate?

For that money you could upgrade, not buy a new pc. 775 architecture fits the bill for that price range. Should get a decent quad core system for that money.

New or second hand mate?

I have an account with OCAU which I can buy stuff second hand at good prices. Dont laugh, cheap upgrading is a good thing. Ive gone from a p4 to a q9550 with 8 gig of ram for not that much at all.

If you are going to buy retail, MSY is the place, theres others like Umart, Itestate and a heap of others. Even Centrecom are competative.

And Hicksie may be able to assist too!!

Go to MSY technologies. Shitty website but they're the cheapest but far.

Do you need advice on parts?

They are the cheapest, but be prepared to be treated poorly.

About a year ago when i was respeccing to Beiber, I rang them up and got them to confirm they had all the bits I wanted. Went into the store, waited the 45 minutes in line & when I gave them the list of bits I wanted the guy shrugged his shoulders and said "we don't have that, that and that".

FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU MSY!

That was at the ultimo store, I ended up buying the kit from auburn, which was slightly less retarded.

They probably use a state inventory list and whoever was on the phone probably had no idea Ultimo isn't in Auburn or it just happened to sell out during your wait :D
