Would be useful to know what your intended usage for the machine is so that people can give relevant responses/advice :)

But make sure you add the silver warranty for a fiver, its well worth it.

Mcfphil,

As Rakk mentioned above, you need to let us know what you plan to use this PC - home/office, photo/video editing, gaming? Do you have a budget - are you under or over the budget? Without this information it's nearly impossible comment or make suggestions for improvements.

Generally it's a good spec, however I have some suggestions for you. You state it's going to be used for "Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and Office 2010 and playing the odd game in my spare time...Civilization V and that sort of thing" - based on your usage, my advice would be up amend the order to a HD5770 and if the increased cost is too much, decrease the RAM to 4GB.

Also consider removing the Audigy SE soundcard because it takes a pair of highly tuned ears to notice any difference between that and the onboard sound.

Hi PCS I have taken your advice and removed the sound card and upped the graphics card to the 1GB ATI RADEON™ HD5770 with the alteration it was only an extra £20
