Hmm... What to buy...
Okay, well, I'm getting £100 for building a computer for some guy, so I'm wondering, what to spend £100 on...
I'm thinking something computer related so I'll post my specs, see if you guys think I should upgrade anything. Motherboard - Abit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLi. Processor - Intel Pentium D 2.6Ghz. (I'm thinking of saving up for quad core with this money.) Hard drive - 150Gb. Graphics card - 8800GTS 320Mb. Sound card - onboard 7.1. PSU - 700W. RAM - DDR2 2GB. OS - Windows XP home edition. Speakers - Headphones or 5.1 surround sound. (Both about mid-quality.) If you're going to recommend a part, use this site. www.microdirect.co.uk With the graphics card, I may be able to sell my current one for £180 to a friend, however I'd only do this to get a better one... If anyone is able to recommend anything I'll be greatful. Thanks, incase I forget.

Nothing. Continue saving up for the Quad-Core. Or maybe, if your mobo allows it, go up to 4GB of ram.
EDIT: Charge that bastard 2x the amount for labor.

I could probably get quad core for doing this computer build and if I trade in the majority of PS2 games, which I never play anyway. 4GB? I could get 8GB if I was insane enough.
