After looking at this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/145424 I got to thinking is there a cheap option for new PC build? I have a case with PSU & Hard drive and only need Core 2 Duo or better performance as it's just an internet browsing machine. Problem is I don't live near MSY and it's about $13.50 for delivery. Which equates to about $150 delivered for a CPU/MOBO/4GB system.
Cheapest New CPU, Motherboard & RAM?

Cheers yeah I hadn't edited my profile in a while I'm actually at Gympie not Brisbane so need it shipped. Prices look similar to MSY. Guess it doesn't get any better than this for new parts.
Umart store in Brisbane. Check it out?

If your needs are basic, ANY processor will do. Get the A4-4000 if you want a bit of oomph in the graphics department.
But Intel CPU's are generally better value and are more power efficient.
CPU: Intel Celeron G1820 $52
Mobo: ASUS with USB 3 and DVI-D $62
RAM: 8GB (2x4GB) Kingmax or Crucial memory DDR3-1600 $89 or $48 for single 4gb DIMM
