Please help me with budget build

[Shrimp]

I don't know what's good or not anymore

My budget is around £2-300 (Guideline, not a target ) I'll be using Scan.co.uk: Leading supplier of Computer Hardware because of it's close location (I'd like to get it built before Christmas)

I need an almost full tower (although I could probably skip the casing too, but it's a bit of a dust magnet so it might be a good idea to replace it) I don't need a monitor or other peripherals. I also don't need a graphics card as I have a GT240.

I'm not worried about upgrading in the future, or overclocking. I only really play WoW and Source games. Starcraft 2 when that's also released but I think anything I get now will run that

Thank you very much to those who help

so basically you just need the tower? you need an OS also or no?

by "other peripherals", you mean like mouse + keyboard, speakers etc, are not needed?

 

[Shrimp]

Just the tower yes. Minus a graphics card

No OS needed. I like XP and haven't really needed to upgrade it,

Thank you very much for taking the time to do that

Going by first glances, that seems pretty overkill for what I want to do.

Is there a cheaper alternative for the cpu and memory?

 

[Fat.Clown]

i suppose you could sacrifice 1 core
Scan.co.uk: ADX425WFGIBOX - AMD Athlon II X3 425, Triple Core, Rana, S AM3, 2.7GHz, 1.5MB Cache, HT 2000MHz, 95W, Retail
55.28

or even 2 cores..... starting at 44.91

but memory wise - 4 GB kits all hover around that price, even for DDR2 memory

you could switch to this power supply unit to shave off a few pounds
