Hi There...
I've been asked to do a build for my girlfriend - she originally wanted to spend £600, then upped it to £700, and will stretch to £800 if it can really make a difference. Last time I did a build was when the core 2 duos were first coming out, so it's been a while, and I'm a little rusty as to what's out there - this is where you guys come in.
She needs the full rig, including an OS, but doesn't need keyboard, mouse, speakers, or monitor.
She doesn't want it any bigger than her current case, which is an Antec Sonata.
She'd prefer it to be as quiet as possible.
She'd primarily spend most of her time working with The Sims 3 when it comes along, as she was an avid designer in the previous games, and TS2 brought her current system to a crawl, as it sucked up every last bit of RAM there was available to it.
