For info the current PC's are:
Intel Pentium E5200 (2.50GHz) & 2GB RAM
Intel Pentium E2180 (2.00GHz) & 1GB RAM
Requirements:

RAM:
G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
PSU:
Corsair CX 430W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V Power Supply

Any other suggestions greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

Intel Pentium E2180 (2.00GHz) & 1GB RAM
Requirements:
- ■ Support dual monitor setup
■ Good single core performance - We use a website that uses Silverlight technology and it takes ages doing some tasks. From looking in task manager it would seem to just be using one core of the current dual core processor (uses solid 50% cpu whilst calculating)
■ Budget of approx £300
■ Have an SSD (120GB should suffice)

Couple of big queries:
- ■ I'm concerned about noise and this CPU looks like a hot one. Can anyone confirm if this is indeed the CPU to go for, and if so does it need a new cooler on it?
■ I've used corsair PSU's in the past and loved them. Is this a good quiet budget PSU?
■ Does this mobo support dual screen? I can see it's got both DVI and VGA but not sure if it can output from both.
