sorry I'm kinda dumb with symbols, is that in euros or pounds, if it's euros then yeah it's not too bad, if it's pounds you could get two for that, the only thing I see is the 945 chipset is more than necessary for that processor, you could save a few bucks by going with a 915 chipset or so, or get a Pentium D with the 945

It looks fine, and if you ever wanted to go dual core in the future you can with the 945 chipset.
