Hi guys, a friend of mine asked me to build him a simple PC to browse the interwebs, check out his emails and watch videos from time to time. This system will not be used for gaming.
He already has a monitor.
Price including basic mouse and keyboard nothing to fancy ...
His budget is 500$-600$ tops but I figured it could possibly be cheaper then that ?
I am in Canada so everything will be bought on www.newegg.ca and www.ncix.com
I need suggestions on the CPU and the MOBO combo.
Do you guys think I should be getting a quad core or will a dual core be enough for his needs ?
Should I be looking for an AMD APU ?
Thanks,
