£400-600 non-gaming "futureproof"

[Audigex]

I know, I know - I used the word "futureproof". I don't actually mean that, but a friend needs a PC which should last (hardware failure aside) for 5 years or more.

There will be no gaming other than some casual games for his kids, but he's looking for maximum performance for general use, so CPU/RAM/SSD focused.
No monitor/keyboard/mouse needed
Needs to include Windows 7 or allow for it in the price

Basically I'm looking for something quad-core (although 6/8 core wouldn't be a problem) with 256GB SSD ideally (can live with 128GB, as he has HDDs for the rest of his stuff). 4 or 8GB of memory, with 8GB of 1600MHz being preferred, or if that's not possible whichever will give best performance of 8GB of 1333 or 4GB of 1600.

I can find machines which most/all of this, but they tend to sacrifice SSD for GPU and I'd really rather not waste money on a GPU which can be better used on an SSD. Does anything OcUK have fit the bill?

Budget is £400-600, but if I can get him something which covers most/all of the above for £550 or less that'd be perfect.

Cheers guys

Sorry, should probably have specified that this has to be pre-built - both he and I are comfortable with building a PC, but he's got a young child and is generally busy, so wants the convenience of just nipping to OcUK with the whole box and saying "fix it" if something goes wrong, rather than having to run his own checks to find problem components. Having to do the latter with his current (admittedly quite old) machine is part of the reason for upgrading.

That Titan 8000 looks like it could fit the bill, swapping out the HDD for an SSD and adding win7 brings it to £520-580 depending on SSD capacity, which is pretty much the target range and gives him an option of how much to spend.
