Out of stock now. Looked like a good deal too!0

For £215, this looks like a bargain.
Considering it's C2D E4300, Vista Home Premium, reasonable graphics. If you already have a monitor, you're not going to get better for the money.
My only caveat is the motherboard chipset, ideally you want this to be an Intel 965, but I think it's still worth a punt.

Didnt know this processor existed.
Seems great for overclocking and is no Celleron by any means.

No, in a lot of the reviews i've seen it performs as well as the e6300s. It's a good chip.0 -
Thank to OP, great deal, could not build for anywhere near this price
Just ordered one to replace my daughters 3 yr old Aldi Medion P4 Machine
Bear in mind the graphics card is 256mb not 512 (the xtra 256 is nicked from system memory)!
Still Superb Value
The CPU Costs 100 Quid
The Graphics Card is 50 Quid
Memory is 40 Quid
Case & MBD 50 Quid
another 50 Quid for the other bits
Thats 290 to build not including the Windows Vista Premium! or Warranty
EXCELLENT DEALOver 100k miles of Electric Motoring and rising,0
