    Question 2 Part Problem - AIO PC Build/prebuilt questions with cloud NAS and a laptop kicker to boot.

    Sorry for the late reply! Thank you for the advice! I had looked at both of those via pcpartpicker but I'll look into them a bit more. My only issue is going to be remembering what she needs vs the more expensive/powerful things that I would want if it was mine lol. I really appreciate all...

    High capacity. I do think that her RAM is limiting right now. The web programs eat a lot of memory. Yeah, I meant 80+gold. I did a corsair. I like to have a wattage cushion that isn't too big. No sense in not having a component working as efficiently as possible. Now it's just seeing...
