PC for my family

So, I'm building a PC for my family and my dad (who already has a PC of his own! This guy, am I right...) uses a lot of Remote Desktop. 

That got me thinking, that's kinda like a virtual machine, right? so would it require different hardware than an average non-gaming PC?

No, remote desktop is not a virtual machine. You can use it with a very minimal PC.

i7 4790k | MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition | G.Skill Ripjaws X 16 GB | Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB | 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB | MSI GTX 970 Twin Frozr V | Fractal Design R4 | EVGA 650W

A gaming PC for your budget: $800 - $1000 - $1500 - $1800 - $2600 - $9001

You'd be fine with just a cheap AM1 rig or something with an SSD

 

or more preferably a laptop

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
