Thanks for the advice NaturalViolence and werewolfyman, I really appreciate it. I'll go for this PC and fit it with the GT 440 then.

What should I do with my ATI 5450? I take it it's not very high spec at all. Is it worth keeping?

Keep the Pentium 4 and use the 5450 with it. (Unless you don't have PCI Express 2.0 on it.)
Maybe put an older operating system on it or discover the wonders of linux.

I'm getting a refund for this Pentium 4 as I bought it only a few weeks ago

I've tried Linux before (Ubuntu) and did enjoy using it.

Are you returning it?
(The pentium 4.)
I'd save the 5450 for a rainy day, but the G640's Integrated Graphics rival it.
So, I'd guess what you do with it is up to you.

Yeah, I finally managed to arrange a return, so I'm going to send it back. At least I've learnt from this experience what you should be looking at when buying a PC

Maybe you could put the HD 5450 in your E5700 system and use it as a secondary PC/HTPC. (Put it in your living room/kitchen.)
