well those are just examples, to show what can be had for relatively cheap, rather than dumping more money into a platform thats harder and harder to keep up to date.

the only UK site I know fairly well is OCuk (Overclockers UK)

but just an example, comes out to more than what it costs in US, but may just be the one source.

some products are out of stock, but just to show for example

GPU (Radeon 4670) Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4670 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - Retail

Motherboard (similar/same one from above, not the Zotac, but the Gigabyte board) Gigabyte GA-M85M-US2H GeForce 8200 (Socket AM3/AM2+) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

CPU (Same AMD above) AMD Athlon II X2 Dual Core 240 2.80GHz (Socket AM3) - Retail


PSU (similar one above, but modular) OCZ ModXStream Pro 400w Silent SLI Ready Modular Power Supply

RAM (2GB DDR2 800MHz) Kingston HyperX 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel (KHX6400D2LLK2/2G)

comes to 227, 197.39 ex VAT.

just to give you an idea of costs.
