Friend of mine is after a new PC...

Here is his initial spec list:


Does anyone have any suggestions?
Can anyone get any parts for cheaper than that?

Couple notes:
He DOES want 2 20" monitors
He does have extra HDD's so that size HDD in the list is all that is needed

Cheers

I'd be wary of a 20" monitor for 115 quid as well.
