Build for my Mom!

[ThyFeared]

So 2 weeks ago on tuesday my dad's Dell XPS 400 died. Now yesterday my mothers Dell died ironic no? So we have bought the parts we needed and it's going to be my very first ITX build. The case choice was a pain since we needed something small enough to fit on her small desk.

Why not go for the next Pentium down?

 

Doubt you have any need for an overclocking chip..

You should get a Titan or even 2, would help for Facebook games and chrome browsing

I just wanted something cheap that could be decent and have no need for a GPU. This gives me a decent processor and an iGPU

I was thinking about Titan X with a 295X2

Yeah, and also, ad a workstation GPU in there like a Quadro when she works on Word.

True that might help with the font rendering!

Go ahead and throw in 4 Titans in quad SLI. Maybe a 5960x. Just so you can edit an amazing collage for Facebook, you know?
