Hi all,

I have been looking at a potential new mATX Windows PC for the clubroom,
here are some proposed specs and rough prices.
Prices and example components are from PLE because I used their part
picker, but we can probably find things cheaper elswehere. I have gone for
value over quality brands in most places, but if you see something that's
too cheap and cheerless let me know.

Low End Build - $970:
i5 4460 3.2 GHz - $255
H81 mATX Motherboard such as Asus H81M-E - $80
8GB DDR3 RAM such as G.Skill Value C11 - $85
WD Black 1TB - $105
Generic mATX Case such as Silverstone Precision PS08 - $50
FSP Raider Edition 550W 80+ Silver power supply - $95
GTX 960 such as MSI GeForce Gaming 2GB - $300

Mid-range Build - $1150:
i5 4690 3.5GHz - $310
H97 mATX Motherboard such as Asrock H97M Pro4 - $120
8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 RAM such as GeIL Evo Veloce C9 - $100
WD Black 1TB - $105
Slightly better generic mATX case such as Fractal Core 1000 - $65
FSP Raider Edition 650W 80+ Silver power supply - $110
GTX 960 such as Gigabyte GeForce G1 Gaming 2GB - $340

High End 'I can dream of another hailstorm' Build - $1460:
i5 4690 3.5GHz - $310
Z97 mATX Motherboard such as ASRock Z97M Anniversary - $135
8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 RAM such as Kingston HyperX Fury Black C10 - $100
WD Black 1TB - $105
Samsung 850 EVO M.2 120GB - $115
Slightly better generic mATX case such as Fractal Core 1000 - $65
FSP Raider Edition 650W 80+ Silver power supply - $110
