Ok it over the £600 but this will be a nice machine I reckon to dsave cash you could pick up the CPU 2nd hand to save a bit


GJUK

is all of that from any particular site or did you use multiple sites?

and are you absolutely sure all that is compatible etc? (not doubting you, just dont wanna get it and it not work etc :D

all from OCUK

as For Compatible not to sure never used a Biostar - Like my shuttles 2 much I never had a problem with Twinmoss in p4 system so I reckon you be ok - you could check with OCUK sales/tech team to make sure

brilliant.
cheers

no worries only thing I put a black DVD-RW they do Silver ones(different make) so you can get so it all looks nice and pretty:D

Spend a bit more and get a shuttle - Shame OCuk no longer sell them

I know u supplied specs etc for that one... but if I said to you I have 1,100 to spend on a small PC with a 17" flatscreen... what would you buy with it? cause thats basically all im after.

oh... and it has to play latest games and be able to run photoshop nicely ;)

For a flatscreen the LG 1710B or the Samsung 172X.
