I always recomend those who are looking at a new PC is to focus on the components that are slowest on the system. In general, the hard drive is the slowest component. I would prefer to downgrade the CPU to the next level below and use those extra few hundrend dollars and upgrade my hard drive to one that spins faster and has a faster throughput. Anything extra, i would suggest in improving RAM.

Why not consider getting a secondhand system? Here's a reconditioned unit just spotted on a popular auction site, just 531 Euros...

There are even cheaper systems available, if you know where to look.
