I have been asked to spec a workstation for a friend of mine. She is an Architecture student and will be using the system for work only (e.g. AutoCAD, Revit, Sketchup, Photoshop). NO over clocking, NO gaming. She has a strict budget of no more than £450 ($600) for the full build (She is moving from a laptop so has nothing).

I have built a workstation for this kind of use for myself before, but they have all been in the £2000 ($3000) range, and I have no real experience in where money is best spent on such a low end system.

The only constraint is that it will have a workstation GPU (e.g. Quadro 600).

Any UK supplier (or multiple).

What would your suggestions be?

A complete system for £450 that includes monitor, mouse, and keyboard is going to be tough to do. I usually suggest ebuyer.com for UK friends.
