No separate graphics card?

Only 4GB memory?  rubschin:

Don't play much in the way of games, so need for graphics card - you are limited to the resolution/spec of your monitor anyway

4 gig ample for my current needs - can take 16 so no problem there.

System cost just over 200 squids.


£200 ~ can't argue with that.

You already have a moniter then?

Current monitor is flat screen TV wot Mrs Tel won in Allders Xmas raffle (staff do) - SVGA, resolution is good enough for me.
Currently have main PC, plus 2 old Dell boxes that are backup/storage units but also test bed boxes and also useful for checking drives for virus problems.

If I was after a monitor, then -

Case, hard drive  and DVD writer delivered.

Ordered a graphics card, had to give a spare one away to a deserving cause - new one £20.

I am amazed that somebody can supply a tower case with power supply for £20.

Suppose mobo, processor and RAM will arrive next week now.
