i had alot of debate with myself over this, i wanted to tell you go with the 2600 but the internet told me i was wrong. Cant go for the old dx 9 cards as far as i can tell they are not being made anymore.

PSU:

should hold up, if unsure £9 gets you a 500w version

tower:

Its not showing me anything... only the home page, could you post the name and price of the product? or fix up the links
sorry sup ,cut and paste these from my post some time ago, looks like I have to start from the beggining again !.
I have been advised novatech are a good company to supply computers and have seen these specs below on their site, but no mention of mother board? also a price from dell direct which has also been advised. I will get moniter as seperate element not included in this budget and I have operating system. Sound card and second drive I will get later on.thanks if you can cast your eye over these specs and tell me what you think.
