My upgrade list...

I was hoping to upgrade my computer to a at least good computer (and getting away from that Geforce 2 ).
Here is what I was hoping to buy and I was wonder if any of you have seen any better deals.

NOTE: All the prices incude VAT.

Hard Drive
=========
GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 - £51

GRAPHICS CARD
==============
128MB ATI Radeon 9600 XT - £135.13

MEMORY
========
512 MB SDRAM, PC133 - £89.29 <== This is only what my old computer can hold.

COOLERS
=========
Cooler Master CoolDrive 3 DHC-U43 = Hard drive cooler - £17

Cooler Master ARC U01 = Memory cooling kit - £3 x2 = £6

Not havin much luck are you?
I'd love to help but I'm on the other side of the globe, and don't know my squid from my pence when it comes to buying hardware. Why are you getting a hard drive cooler though? I live in one of the hottest places on the planet and I've never felt the need to keep my hard drive cool. I didn't even know there was such a thing.

I am also Aus, so I can't help ye, laddie. I was wondering the same thing; why do you need HDD and RAM coolers? Are you into some serious overclocking, or...?

How old is your motherboard? if not too old, you must be running win98 which has a limit of 512. Xp will let you run a bit more which helps. US prices here, so no help on that end.
