As the title suggests I need some input/suggestions on a budget slime HTPC. The system is mainly going to be used for constant web browsing i.e. Spread betting, CFDs, and Stockbroking, and some media consumption like YouTube and Netflix. It needs to be both fast and reliable. The budget is not much of an issue but lets see where we go with it.

 

I have provided a Pc part picker link which should provide a basis of what my current thoughts are for this build. Any input is welcome and greatly appreciated. Also this is very early on in the planning stage and nothing is set in stone, and the ram listed is a place holder for now thinking of changing but might need 8GB capacity as this build will not be for me but my uncle who refuses to not install Norton internet security even though it's really bad on managing resources in my opinion.
