£450 gaming/video/photi editing pc for friend

APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: October (however he wants to know what he can get for his money now)

BUDGET RANGE: £450 (£500 including os would be more realistic I feel

SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: gaming, video/photo editing (games known to play: wow Team Fortress 2,Half life 2 , cs source

PARTS NOT REQUIRED: keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers

PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: www.Ebuyer.com www.aria.co.uk www.amazon.co.uk (I like www.overclockers.co.uk at times)

OVERCLOCKING: Maybe SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe but not now since budget wont stretch

MONITOR RESOLUTION: His current monitor is less than 1600x1200 but he wants to buy new one when he gets more money

PARTS PREFERENCES:I think ATI 4800 series and and amd phenom 2 x3 720 or x4 955be would be good. He has pre ordered windows 7 for price listed below

Now I didn't really like this build that much but the build I came up with was far too expensive £501.32 on www.overclockers.co.uk and that was without windows 7, so I thought you could help to make the build above better. I think £500 including the OS would be fine. If you want to see what I chose just ask but I decided not to include my build to decrease post length.

Here's what I've come up with slightly modified version of my original £501 list and its still over the budget

HIS ATI Radeon HD 4850 1024MB GDDR3 PCI-Express Graphics Card - OEM
(What does an oem card mean, Do you have to purchase a cooler and cables or does it just mean it doesn't come in a box and has a lesser warranty)

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/show [...] =MB-358-AS
Asus M4A77TD Pro AMD 770 (Socket AM3) PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/show [...] =HS-056-AK
Akasa AK-FN057 Apache Super Silent 120mm Fan - 4 Pin PWM

Which comes to £467.43

Antec TriCool 120mm fan £1.37 less

and a you can get mid tower for under £30 but if he wats something red hows this http://www.ebuyer.com/product/1348 [...] ct_reviews

In his build he didnt include an extra psu, in my build I chose a case without psu and a psu to go with it to make sure on psu quality

Which would bring the build price down to £451.56 which is basically the price point wanted, and for £450 it seems a very nice pc, though I myself would be tempted to push up the budget to icluse a better card and a future proof psu.

If he doesn't listen to me about getting a branded PSU he will save another £32, which would meant it would only be £50 more than his original build, which considering were getting very good dd3 memory instead of value dd2 and better processor seems pretty good
