[SOLVED] TheComputerWidowMaker does it again!

[aboundingoddities]

Last of 3 Win 7 comps, and it's dying a semi-fast death too. My 1st to go was my "4" year old Win 10 HP.

Forced to build my own! BUT:

I can find info all over concerning MB's, CPU's, GPU's, and even to build a Hackintosh if needed, but not one before late 2018, which is when I need to know the newest information?

My main computer had to be running nearly 24/7 due to my health demands, plus I do a lot of work online nearly 12 to 20 hours each day, and I also do a lot of personal and minor business vids and slideshows for family and friends that incorporate modest to intrusive transitions etc.

I can research and buy cheap like crazy..........but I am lost.

I last bulit my own right as Millenium came out - after returning 7 to the stores wqithin 4 hours of turning the bloody things on.......HP, Dell, Compaq, and MICROSOFT has proven no online or call tech can be asked to listen or read when they destroyed my main HP in December.

I want speed, of course, great graphics ability for moderate work, and it has to stay on, and I know I ask a lot, but I finally joined a single group to ask in.

Quick, this HP Win 7 will soon die LOL I will run Win 10 though - No choice since I do not know MAC at all.

Many thanks either way folks

Guess you want to build yourself a new system,you have a max budget for that?

LOL I thought I was intelligent enough to reply.........Hard method, but Yes sir........I normally use names in everything......weird - Sorry rambling.........There is how I find you Vic.

I can create likely up to $350 to $600 over the next month through selling items off. I know it's doable, just uncertain with the new technology versus what I used to know LOL

Thanks

Two options,the Intel is in most things the speedier but it has the weaker integrated graphics,

if you still gonna use the hdd from the old pc could you drop that from the list to make things cheaper. Don't know if W10 needed to be included in the price.

Edit,

Saw something changed in price and see now it is the case,i would use the next to save some money,still a good case just no window which you maybe don't even like,
