I am looking to build a new pc for my dad.
I have the R3 case and love it, nice and quiet. Plus the SSD is awesome for the OS and applications.
The machine would mainly be used for photo editing and general usage (word, excel, internet), but he has also expressed an interest in playing some games, mainly FPS type games, left for dead etc (nothing to new i wouldn't have thought). More than anything it need to be fast and quiet.
Everything I spec seems to go well over his £600 budget and I think this is because I am speccing to high for what he actually needs (i.e. 170 quid GPU). You help would be most useful.
Edit - He has monitor, keyboard, mouse - so would just need base unit and OS (Win 8)
Thanks in advance
