My great cousin is currently using a 7 year old dual core AMD system, 4 gigs of ram and an ancient hard drive all he does is watch dvds, online banking and youtube. He doesn't need the latest and greatest processor or a gpu for anything he does so I thought an older generation cpu would be more than capable of giving him a great experience without spending a ton of money on features he will never use. Everything in this list is as basic as it could be, but I'm open to any suggestions the community has. He almost bought a 250 dollar desktop and I told him not to do that and let me see what I can find. The parts list is from newegg at 450 including shipping, using brand new parts not used and I might possibly toss in an old 1050 or my 650 just to get it out of the box and actually doing something aside from collecting dust. Everyone stay safe and keep on keeping on.

Why not go with used parts?

This is used parts. 4th gen Intel is oldish - it's on DDR3.

Guess I misunderstood his brand new parts statement. In Turkey where I live they still sometimes sell sealed 3-4th gen CPU's and maxwell cards

From what I understand its an unused 4th gen, new in box but old parts. I could have worded that better if I'm being honest
