Looking to build a SFF PC for my father, not too expensive

[yannis76]

Hi,

I am planning to build a SFF PC with Windows 7 for web surf, word and some image edit/manipulation for my father. He will place the box upon his desk so noise is an issue. Budget no more than 600€ including the monitor. Any advise is welcome...

Thank you in advance

Performance?

Thank you for the reply
I do have some doubts regarding performance in image editing . Wouldn't an four cores AMD APU work better?
Also he does need a DVD CD writer so this case doesn't work...
