May Get a New PC!

I've been a build-it-yourself kinda guy for a good ~8 years now.

First system I built was an AMD64 3200, Radeon 1800XL bad boy.

Been steadily upgrading/overhauling since and currently looking at a AMD Phenom x3 720 OC'd to 3.3ghz and a Radeon 5850.

Also had work on the side with a few builds for friends of the family/mates at college/uni.

What you buy all depends on budget but I'd have to say the DIY route is definately back in fashion (went out for a while there, with the recession and all) with integrated systems on smaller dies cutting prices down no end. Being able to upgrade on your own timescale (not defined by warranty) is nice too.

What sort of price range are we looking at for the whole thing? (not 100% on american markets right now but if you're working in pounds I could throw you a decent spec list up if you wanted).
