£600 Video Editing Base Unit Only

[ssmacc]

A friend of mine wants a PC for Video editing, he's got a budget of £600 for just the base unit, doesn't need any software or peripherals out of this budget.

Any spec's appreciated.

Cheers,

A wee bit, its £65 more.

The trick is to try and keep within budget
