Graphics Card - Sapphire HD 6870 1GB ebuyer - £140
RAM - Corsair 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1333MHz ebuyer £35
Case - I was going to reuse my current cooler master case.
HDD - I was going to reuse my current Samsung HD250HJ
PSU - I have a win power atx up to 700w PSU that I was thinking of reusing, will this suffice until I can afford a new one? It has worked well on this PC being on for about a year without being turned off, if that makes a difference?
Total: £402.
