Go to: http://www.newegg.com and pick out pieces to build your own. Have any questions about building your own, go to: http://www.hardforum.com/index.php? to have all your questions answered.

In fact when(or if) i move into my new flat in the next month I'll be building a new rig for myself, hopefully under £400 if possible.

Still undecide on whether to go for an Intel P4 or an AMD 64.....tho 64's are pricey like WOAH... annoy:

thats because the amd 64s are hundreds of millions of times better!!! oOo:

id go to tigerdirect and just buy one, theyre a little more expensive that custom, but very easy to deal with.

if you can build your own... new egg hands down.
