[soap_dodger]

£54 odd pound is the cheapest OEM Vista and thats Basic.

Yeah, I would personally get a new one even if your old one would fit anyway.

As for the eBay link, it's good for the price of it.

 

[dave]

that mobo i picked has no pci express that going be a problem later or not?

 

[soap_dodger]

Well seeing as your not a "hardcore" gamer type. I don't think it should be really.
