Hi all,
Looking to build my ex a minimum spec PC. She's currently struggling with an archaic Pentium 4 that she inherited. Needless to say it takes about an hour for it to open a document, let alone display websites.
Cost is the key element - difficult to name a budget, other than to say that it must be absolute bare minimum. Like ridiculously low! She needs nothing fancy, just a minimum spec machine that can do word processing and browsing. That said, our 8 year old lad lives with her, and loves PC gaming, so if we can squeeze a basic graphics card in, great - but it is not essential.
She needs a monitor, but I can prob try and get a second hand 22 incher off fleabay - A new one would prob take the budget into unaffordable range.
No OS required - have Win7 I can put on it.
Any input most appreciated!
