[syabilng]

Hi, guys.

I need help in building a rig for my friend. His budget is under $500. Here are the specs:

Processor: INTEL CORE I3-4150
Motherboard: ASROCK H81M-VG4
RAM: GSKILL AEGIS 4GB DDR3 1600mhz
PSU: FSP HEXA+ 450W
Chassis: COOLERMASTER Elite 343 (MATX)
HDD: WD 1TB Caviar Blue 7200RPM/64MB
Monitor: BENQ 24" GL2450

Let me know if they work. I'm no expert. Or do I use AMD processor and motherboard?

What is he gonna do with that PC?

Basic usage like web browsing, office, youtube. Or he wants gaming, CAD, programing, etc.

Sorry, he's just using it for movies, music listening and the only game he plays is flight simulator.
