£350 - £400 Build help

[gerico]

Hey guys,

My old man needs a pc for his photography. He's not a hardcore photographer so this machine will just need to run photoshop and general web browsing so not looking to run games etc but still want the best I can get for around 350 - 400.

I do not need monitor, OS, or any thing else. Just purely a spec please. Figured I'd ask you amazing people and see what we can come up with! Think small and compact people!

Thanks man, I'm bad at spending on a budget, I only spend big. I might chuck in a R9 270 to this, would the PSU be ok with that?

I would up it too a 450w min or the 550w Superflower, but if its not going to be used for gaming just use the onboard, the 270 will be a complete waste.

Fair point, the gamer in me can't let go Thank big time buddie, this look great. I prefer the small for sure. I like the look of the BitFenix Phenom MATX Cube Case, that'd work right?
