    Looking for new parts! Suggestions? (RAM/HDD/TFT screen)

    Hello guys,

    I'm building up a new PC, having really been out of it all for the past 10 months so not sure what the latest/greatest or even half decent components are at the moment! What I currently have is an AMD 64 3000+ (939pin) with a Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9 mobo. What I need is a PCI-X video card, ram, hard drive and a new screen. As regards to the video card, I just need the absolute cheapest video card as I'm not a PC gamer - have my xbox and PSP for gaming. Ram - ideally about a Gb of ram and hard drive - a big sata drive - ideally a quiet one.

    The screen I'm looking at is a Digimate L-1918. I've been working with a 19" screen for a few years now and I don't want to go lower than that. The digimate thing - not that I've heard of the brand before - but it's less than 200 quid, it uses DVI and according to the reviews on aria.co.uk, people seem impressed with it. I'm welcoming alternative suggestions!

    Cheers guys!

    Welly

    Have you seen a negative review at Aria? Not sure if i've seen one.

    I have just swapped from a Video7 TFT to a AG Neovo and would recommend a better brand than the Digimate. Having said that I did buy 4 Digimates earlier in the year as they were the cheapest at the time.
