Oh right didn't see that you have an Hdd, £500 for an i5, that'll last you longer than your current machine, which will also be great for the future for upgrades, that's a no brainer.
If you're gonna get an SSD, stick with Samsung, Intel or Crucial in that order, anything else is crap, crap...
If that's just gonna be an all rounder family PC, I think you'll find it hard to fill a 1TB hard drive, swap it for a 500gb seagate and the total will be £580, then you'll have spare to get a monitor and not go over by much.
Again, my List is just a suggestion to what you can get for the money...
I mentioned about the monitor that I left it out, also SSD, right now is just too expensive, why over £100 for only 120GB, sure, you get blistering performance, but you also get limited storage and reliabillity issues, ok they've really improved since they've first started, but for the money...
I'd have one, Drove one few months ago, it does shift well, I like the interior, and the push to start button, Niggly things like that spoiler going across the rear screen would annoy me too much.
tbh, I wouldn't bother, It would affect but not that much.
For 4gb ddr2 at higher frequency, you can pay the same and get 8gb ddr3 kit @1600MHz.
Forget about the ram.

Just to put it out there, ddr2 ram is silly expensive, leave it at 4gb, Get rid of Vista, put Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit, upgrade the graphics card to maybe a HD7850 they're quite reasonable, If you want to spend the money on an SSD then you'll see a massive increase in performance, even...
xD Been doing it for over 2 years, tbh, its a 1.2, i'm not that completely bothered about doing it, Probably won't do it to the EP3 I plan on getting around september time.
My dad's the worse for it, He's had alot of cars, and his current 03 Honda Accord 2L Vtec, Had it for 5 years, and just...
-5c and the faithful ol' 1.2 started up with no problems, left it running with heaters on full, Had me Breakfast for 5 mins and the windows fully defrosted and very warm inside too.
I7 3770k @4.40Ghz, would easily go more, but comfortable at 4.4, idle's in the 20c's and hits in the high 60s on prime stress test, Running at 1.17v, I could lower the V and run stable at 4.4...but i'm lazy.
Just saw the first post and thought that was the dogs Boll***s, then thought what would a EP3 with red stitching would look like (After an EP3 this year) *click last page*.......*Explosion in lower part of body* That's awesome
You'll have to complete the assignment to get it mate, there other assignments that give different attachments for the xbox, such as explosive rounds, tracer dart type things, balance bolts (which allows you to use it at long range with very little drop) and scoped.
You change between the...
I take it a step too far, I get out the tank and casually tap the crouch button a few times....Normally results in getting a few well worded messages xD
Had the game since release on xbox and thought its was a awesome looking game.
Then last week I got it for PC...it is 10000000000x better than xbox, Its soooo beautiful and runs really smooth on high, problem with the online on PC is you've got some incredibly hardcore players compared to xbox...
