What components should I get?

[Wooderson]

Here is the final cost I got for both routes... They both contain similar components apart from the CPU/GPU etc.

AMD

TOTAL COST = £717.31

INTEL

TOTAL COST = £852.66

Both do not include the Windows 7 software, but I reckon I can re-use the disk which I had for my laptop, (If this isn't possible please let me know)

I guess it would be best to choose Intel, despite it being over £100 more than AMD... You get what you pay for though :3
