I need a build which will be used mostly for internet surfing, editing documents and watching movies.
The most important for me is data integrity, such as with ECC Memory.
MAYBE I will manage to exploit it for low level or medium level gaming (that is only optional).
For example, if the Intel CPU has integrated graphics, then it will probably allow me low level gaming without a graphic card (and without much effort).
Another example, if the build already allows it - then MAYBE I will choose to install some Nvidia card (such as RTX 3060) sometime in the future (but the build shouldn't make an effort to adjust the components for it).
I know that it would be a workstation (because of the ECC Memory requirement), but I hope that it would be similar enough to a desktop PC.
My needs are as follows:
CPU:
The following is according to the sticky thread:
Approximate Purchase Date:
This week.
Budget Range:
500$ after rebates and after shipping.
System Usage from Most to Least Important:
Surfing the internet, watching movies, low-to-medium gaming.
Are you buying a monitor:
Yes - a 1440p ("2K"), 27", 60Hz monitor - BUT it is irrelevant to the build request here - please don't consider it in the budget.
Parts to Upgrade: (e.g.: CPU, mobo, RAM):
I'm not upgrading, rather I want a new build.
Do you need to buy OS:
No
Parts Preferences:
Already indicated.
Overclocking:
No.
SLI or Crossfire:
No.
Your Monitor Resolution:
Will buy some 1440p resolution.
Additional Comments:
Preferably a quiet PC.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading:
Need a system which ensures data integrity (such as with ECC Memory feature).

I know that it would be a workstation (because of the ECC Memory requirement), but I hope that it would be similar enough to a desktop PC.
My needs are as follows:
CPU:
- Must be Intel.
- Must support ECC Memory.
- Preferably "Intel® Core™ i5-12600 Processor" because it supports ECC Memory and I can compare it to other desktop CPUs (it is familiar to me).
- Preferably Asus.
- Supports Intel CPU.
- Supports ECC Memory.
- On the back, at least 4 USB inputs type A.
- On the front panel, at least one USB.
- At least 4 SATA connectors.
- Firmware support for profiles.
- Graphic port is DP, via CPU.
- Has one 1Gbps Ethernet port.
- At least WiFi5. (Interested in the price difference with WiFi6E).
- Preferably - Form factor is either Micro-ATX or Mini-ATX.
- Standard audio (2.1) inputs.
- Optional - Supports 4 RAM slots (for optional bigger memory).
- Optional - Supports a graphic card, such as a "ASUS ROG RTX 3060" variant.
- Capacity: 16GB (2x8GB).
- ECC Memory.
- All system components must support ECC memory.
- Data integrity and operation reliability is of high importance in this build, so it takes precedence in the choice of components.
- Smallest size possible.
- Must support at least one 2.5" drive.
- Preferably - Supports three 2.5" drives.
- Optional - Supports two 3.5" drives.
- High quality (I appreciate a good PSU).
