Trying to build a cheap PC for me old man and am looking at the Novatech bundles. Anyone got any thoughts on them?

I'm looking at this one

Seems good spec with a Branded motherboard for a good price.

Or seprately I am looking at
Asus A7V8X-X
512MB PC2700
Athlon XP 2800 Barton

Cost wise they are the same.

anyone got any views :(

My uncle has had a novatech PC for about a year now, no problems so far at all, good computer and was a reasonable price.

So if it is about the same price as putting one together yourself i would go for novatech as you get the bonus of a warranty

The bundle looks ok, would be better if it had branded DDR400 RAM though....

try komplett, this would be better and cheaper...
