Hi. I'm looking for a ridiculously cheap pc that could do media streaming and steam in home streaming. And maybe some games like minecraft. Gigabit Internet, Web browsing, dedicated game server for 2 or 3, Nothing else.
Any cpu will do, AMD or Intel, as long it's cheap.
I don't need a gpu, I prefer integrated graphics. VGA IS ESSENTIAL. And I have 2 fx5500 lol. wonder will it work with windows 8.1.
2gb of ram is OK,
4gb is better for me but, depending on price.
Some decent motherboard that is like Asus or gigabyte.
Would prefer a badass BIOS. Badass BIOS is Optional.
I need a micro/mini motherboard. (the smallest one.)
No overclocking. Not needed. Stock cooler.
The cheapest hard drive. Less than or 320gb, 120gb. Where do you find those hard drive these days lol
PSU. Something that doesn't blow my pc up or set it on fire when i run 24/7.
Case doesn't matter. (if theres a cheap one, I'll take it. Currently using a box.)
BELOW $250.
I have a 1280x1024 monitor, mouse, keyboard, Windows 8.1 (legit), speakers, optical drive.
Here is my random selection. It does not have a PSU.

[strike]I will also run the computer 24/7 a day, probably might use it as a file server someday[/strike]
I was wondering if anyone could give me ideas, I looked through used windows xp computers, and some other stuff. I need another spare pc as my laptop won't do servers and game at the same time. Also, I want to find use for old games as well as that 1280x1024 VGA ONLY monitor.
Was also wondering could I dual boot windows xp and 8.1.
