hey guys i could use some advice on building a pc used for office work and software testing i.e. linux bug fixes, and with a very large storage capacity with the ability to add on storage, 

this pc will hold back ups of a lot of information so reliability  is iimportant and low budget 

thanks:)

sorry if this sounds a bit blunt or something, just off night shift and wrecked

this is a good $720 computer , just add some more storage to it and it should be good for all your purposes :)

that powersupply though, don't it is reliability...

I see alot of people PSU breaking down in a few months. Not a good build... why do you need color fans.

thanks guys 

i kinda want to build both, 

need to build it as a back up data-base for costumers information etc

when it comes to hard i know a lot about the high end stuff and have neglected learning on the every day use stuff :/

 

yeah it is sketchy , i tried to fix into the $700 range so i dropped to 300W and there wasnt much power supplies with good rating :P

 

 

that powersupply though, don't it is reliability...

I see alot of people PSU breaking down in a few months. Not a good build... why do you need color fans.

what PSU would you suggest ?
