Im stuck with components for a new system

Hi all.

My PC died the other day, im suprised it lasted that long to be honest

Anyway, I need a PC, fairly good, not ott, I dont really play games, so just the general plus a bit really.

Ive built a few pcs no problem, but im stuck if the hardware im chosing is compatible.

I've priced up a few bits, anyone care to comment? as far as i know its all compatible, have i missed anything?

and does it seem ok?

Only thing I need now is a copy of vista 64bit

comp

yes this all looks ok, but i would maybe say try and get a cop that has more than 3mb of cache, 6 or more would be a lot better. Also can i advise you een though you dont play games to get a stand alone graphics card. You can pick one up for £20,£30 so not going to break the bank and your while comp experience will be a lot better, just make sure your motherboard had a pci express slot if it doesnt (im not too sure myself if your has 1 i think it is the blue slot on ur board but just check) then a different motherboard can be found at probs the same price. Happy Computing
