    AMD if it's not for gaming because there just as fast for media use and alot cheaper and personally I only think paying the premium price on Intel CPU's is only worth it for gaming and heavy video editing.

    For watching films and surfing you hardly need any power. I think that a simple AMD build with a single/dual/triple core would be enough.
    Don't get the OCZ RAM since they've finished up making it.
