765.54 from www.komplett.co.uk and it looks as though they build it as well

Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, P965, Socket-775,

The main drop from the AMD spec would be the graphics card.

Seems pretty good, though a geforce 7600gt will perform better than a
X800, I'm going to be be building, well actually upgrading to a similar
system, personally I'd get slightly better ram so you can OC as the core
2's OC very nicely, you should be able to get 2.3 with stock cooling.
