Ok, herewith the breakdown. There are three quotes attached, the first one starts at R14,200 and include an updated i5 CPU, a reasonable motherboard, not quite such an overkill on the PSU, but overall a very nicely balanced machine non the less.
The second quote reduces the motherboard somewhat and exchange it for a much cheaper version.
The last quote removes the outdated GPU and replace it with a newer version at a reduced price.
I have included a markup of 10% on these prices after VAT, obviously said markup does not count (unless we want to make it count) to GRRR members.
Shout if you require the originals, and or if if you require any amendments to said quotes. I can also provide you a letter confirming that the hardware in question is fubar if you need that.

I should add that I did this quote extremely quickly, so shout if there may be something missing. (such as labour charges etc.)

That third option is a pretty good option. One thing I would question is the chassis. Nice ans Lian-Li cases are, you could save some cash there to get the price down a little?
