Looking to build a computer for my sister for christmas. She doesn't play games or anything, just needs a basic functioning computer that's fast for day to day tasks (college student) Last time I even looked this stuff up was about two years ago when I built my last one, so I went through looking at newegg stuff and reviews and came up with this, thoughts? Edit. ugh, newegg used to look differently, let me put product names. The budget was $800 which included a monitor and a mouse (not linked) I came in at $760 total (about $550 for the build itself) not counting Windows which i'll throw in for christmas. I opted for windows seven instead of eight. Thoughts?
