    I am looking to upgrade my PC, I am looking for a cheap motherboard, cpu and ram, i have all the other parts. I wont be doing any gaming on it, just web browsing and some photoshop (nothing too heavy). Currently i have a AMD Athlon XP 2500+ 1.8 ghz, which just cant handle very much, ideally i would like a dual core

    How cheap? And what parts do you have already? The HDD and PSU might need a refresh too (hopefully not)...

    Off the top of my head I'd go for a cheap Intel C2D build as AMD has issues with later versions of Photoshop.

    What about this on eBuyer...
    Certainly not a bad deal, not bleeding edge tech but not too shabby
