Hey,

I want to build a simple computer to my father. He just surf on the internet and stuff like that. He already got one but his motherboard is outdated. So I have one ram (crucial ballistix 4gb ddr3) and i already have a rigid disk. What i need is a motherboard and one CPU. He won't have a GPU. I was thinking about Asrock FM2A58M-VG3+ R2.0 AMD A58 Socket FM2+ (Motherboard) and AMD A4-7300 3.8GHz 1MB Socket FM2+ (CPU). What do you think?

I built a computer for my elderly mother. Like you I chose very low spec cheap parts. A few years later, the PC was still fine for web browsing, but it was really slow to boot up, install windows updates etc.
So when I built a computer for my father, I spent an extra £40 on higher spec CPU and motherboard, knowing that the computer would last a lot longer before it needed replacing.
