Thinking of replacing my aging 1.2ghz AMD Duron PC need advice though

You can just use one. And it's the ATI equivalent of SLI, Crossfire. You don't have to use dual GPUs, it's just available. You'd be fine using one.
 
Ok cool thats alright then, on the upside ive hit my £500 mark :D, had to lose the fancy case and went for a £20 black one which is okish and went for the eBuyer make 512mb memory which i hope will be alright.

Yup dont want anything to fancy though was thinking prehaps this - http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/prod...2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=64789

I dont know if its possible to have a PCI/PCI-e Graphics card with a TV in/out that supports Freeview digital TV (In the UK) ? Id quite want that otherwise id buy it seperatly. The TV card can wait but obviously need a video card.

So are all the parts above i selected going to connected up without a problem ? I dont want to have to ordre all those then find out the PSU wont work with the motherboard or anything ?
