My wife wants a computer for a home work station. Hopefully to have a work-at-home job.I built my pc 20 years ago and did a few upgrades since. I am no longer able to grasp all the details about whats what when it comes to building a pc.
I think Intel I5 is the basic work station now days. But it sure is pricey. I used to always look to Intel and AMD but now I see that there a many other brands that are much more affordable. But I don't know how to find something similar to I5 in work stationability. So this is my desire for a CPU. I would want a motherboard the has onboard graphics and sound and 3 or 4 USB ports. I would want 8 gig of ram with room to double that if needed. A standard ATX case is OK.
Can you guys guide me to the starting line.
I have always bought mt stuff at Best Buy but I think they are a rip off now days.
Recommendations please.
