    So im finally willing to take the plunge and building a gaming box. getting bored of Xbox360 gaming.

    got a budget of around €500, and i don't need a monitor (have 1 running at 1280x1024), but im planning on getting a nice 22" soon enough.
    dont need keyboard/speakers/DVD drive, but i do need a mouse.
    i can also source a student OS , so no need for that.

    i was planning on getting the Aldi build, as it seems good value for money, but as i said i dont need some peripherals, and having to replace the PSU and graphics card seems a bit much. do you reckon you can show me the light?

    oh i did read through the Komplet competition, but as ive been out the PC game for quite some time, im not sure what really is good value or not.
