Hi all,

i need to make a new machine and don't want to break the bank. Could use some advice as i've been out of the game for a while!

I just need the base unit, I have all the other peripherals (mouse, keyboard, monitors etc). I want something as tiny as possible, 10"x10"x4". Obviously that's not possible, but whatever I can get around that size would be brilliant.

This is a work machine, but I'd want to be able to play games. I have 2 Dell 2410u screens that i'd want to power (possibly a 3rd at some point).

I'm running a lot of Virtual Machines and do intensive development work, so 8-16gb memory is what im after, plus multi core (4) CPU is important.

I'm after something that is quite, decent and will last. Passive cool = win! Don't need top of the line and certainly will not be overclocking.

I need help picking a case, MB, CPU, memory and gfx card.

Assuming 500 quid, what are my options?

Thanks!
TM
