Just get a a10 5800k with a asrock a75 mobo and put windows 8 on it. That's the setup I built my grandma and it is awesome.
I'll check that. I will use Windows 7 Ultimate since I already have it. Thanks for your suggestion.

Well it depends on what your budget it, but yeah, that's pretty overkill for a browsing machine.
Budget will be around $500 without monitor. I guess it's fine then.
Why not a sempron x2 190. It's incredibly cheap and perfect for the use case scenario.
I'm taking in consideration that probably her kids will want to play Sims or any other game and the APU will do the work just fine for that.
Thanks for your suggestion.

A friend told me that her mom wanted to buy a computer and I told her that I could build her one and she said that it was ok. I'm thinking of getting an APU build but I don't know which one I should use. She will just use the PC for work and browsing. I was thinking of getting the A8-5500 ($103). What are your thoughts? Is it alright? Or should I get a cheaper one?
For the motherboard I'm going with the Asus F2A55-M/CSM since it's only $78 USD and it has USB 3.0.
I will appreciate suggestions.

How are you gonna fit the H100i in those cases?Nevermind you can fit one in a Bitfenix Prodigy.If they can still use their old computer for work they probably don't need those expensive parts. But I think you'll be fine with a 7870 or 660. You won't need a 750w PSU for an itx build I'm sure you will be fine with the 550w PSU (Check for some good PSU's).

My supervisor at work calling the PC "CPU".
I had a teacher last year and she was talking about computers, I told her that I build one and then she told me that she always buys new computers on ebay, and she tells her husband to upgrade the RAM, I asked her "why?" and she said "to make the computer faster, and when I can't add more RAM I just sell it and buy a better one." What a waste of money, I didn't explained her that RAM doesn't make a PC faster by adding more, because I'm sure she was going to ignore me anyway. She just uses the PC for browsing and using Microsoft Office.

I'm looking for a good 7.1 headset, I have a $150 budget. I don't really know a lot about headsets so I would like if you guys can help me find one. My motherboard is the ASUS M5A97 R2.0.

Just saw there is ways to improve the folding. I'll read and change some settings later.I joined the team.CPU: AMD 8120 @3.5 Ghz - PPD 1533
GPU: MSI R7850 2GB - PPD 1839
I don't know if this will help, but I'll fold whenever I can.
I'm most of the time encoding videos so when I have free time I'll fold.

I might build another PC this year with Haswell when it comes out.You should wait for Hasewell for more CPU upgradeability options. It uses 1150 socket instead of Ivy Bridge's 1155. -
I already have my PC, just wanted to know which one was better for gaming. I have the 8120 but I'm always rendering videos so its better for me but a friend is going to make a new PC soon and he wanted to know how was better for him because they're more or less in the same price. Thanks for all your answers.

Ok, thanks.

I5 2500k or FX 8120? Just want to know...

Really? Hahaha xDMy little brother used to think that the more data you store on an HDD, the heavier the component gets. He also thought that if you pivot the monitor clockwise during a transfer of files or an installation, is would go faster because the gravity would help the loading bar fill faster...^^- LanceAvion, Sithhy, OxideXen and 7 others

Why so much RAM and a 3930k for a gaming system?
So what? Is his rig he knows why he chose that, maybe he just wants the best for his rig.
Nice rig man, you did a great job there. :)

You can get the AMD FX 8350 for $70 more, if you're going to be editing I recommend using 16 GB minimum. Do some more research in cases and find one with more ventilation. You can get a 120 GB SSD for the OS, not that expensive and 1TB HDD.

Use the stock cooler and wait for the H220 that's what I'm going to do.I wish it was out already! I'm building a new rig next week and it would have been great if it was already available...I guess I'll stick to my plan of using an H80i, and then replace that with and H220 at some point after it releases (and maybe the price goes down on sites like Amazon, too :) )...

the website hwcompare (.com) says that the 8800 is more powerful /:
Don't trust that site, always check the benchmarks.
