Building budget PC- what to get?

[elniro]

I need to build a budget PC for my moms, she only uses it for internet and email (so no need for graphics card)
The budget I have to play with is around £200 and I have no idea what parts would be good to get.
I already have a monitor and 370W PSU and as for the RAM memory you can recommend something better and more expensive on the side as I am looking to replace the 2gig (2x1GB Corsair TwinX XMS2, DDR) i currently have in my "gaming" PC and just stick that in my moms budget one.

Any suggestions or builds will be very much appreciated! :Cheers:

That is quite amazing. If his RAM is compatible with that board, I didn't check.

Is your current RAM DDR2 or just DDR?
If its DDR then 2GB OCZ can be had for an extra £25.98 Link
