Poor mans Intel budget LAN/server build xD (£200/$300), Possible contender to $300 scrapyard wars?

[Mr.Meerkat]

Lets start off with the parts:

CPU-i5 2300 (from friend for £35)

MB-Gigabyte ga-h61m-usb3h (h61 micro atx motherboard with PCI-E 3.0 and USB 3.0 support) 

Video card-GTX 560 (again, from same friend for £35)

Ram-Corsair 8gb 1333mhz 

PSU-evga 430w 80+...A tad dodgy as it's not even bronze rated but it's made by evga and reviews seems to be good for this psu

SSD-Sandisk 128gb 

HHD-seagate 750gb

Case-Zalman T4

 

Final cost of £202.86

 

Would have gotten a 750/750 ti but the 560 was only 1/3 of the price.

 

Final thoughts on build

 

needs cable management...it's just me being lazy...

 

still haven't decided...Server or lan machine or both...third world problems

 

Question, should the i5 2300 be running at 50 idle and 70ish under load with stock cooler?

 

Thanks for reading

 

P.s. I know that their GPUs were leagues better...especially that 290...but, but, my CPU... would completely destroy their core duos. This was originally going to be a server but since my friend had a 560 for that cheep, which meant that I could not resist the temptation.

 

Forgot to mention, I will post pictures later but not right now as I hate taking photos with my phone and my DSLR is charging.

Good job on getting such a build for $300! The temps of the CPU are just fine, looking forward to the pics.

Thanks, it's just that I'm probably too used to my main rig running at 30c idle and 50c underload with a h100i
