My dad asked me to build a system for him. He didn't have a firm budget but in the 800 to 1200 is preferred.
He doesn't game, but wants a dedicated video card. He is worried integrated graphics won't be enough especially since he doesn't build or upgrade very often. He wants the machine to last a LONG time. He uses it for home office work, internet, you tube etc..
He doesn't really like RGB. If some components have LEDs that OK, but not preferred.
I was thinking he needed a machine with a good mount of memory and a big SSD so he won't have to add anything to the machine for a while.
Listed below is what I was thinking. Please check for compatibility, as well as any better suggestions. I will give him the option to upgrade some items like memory amount, or CPU if he wants.
