Will this PC work?

[Dr_Pleeper]

I need to build a really cheap pc for a small church to run pro presenter. Their budget was $350 not including tax. Does this pc look right?

and this case: http://www.amazon.com/Silverstone-Aluminum-Mini-ITX-Center-PT13B/dp/B00DL4BMMC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1460993078&sr=8-3&keywords=small+computer+case

 

It has to be really small. Also, will everything fit in this case?

Swap that HDD for a SSD. They wont need much storage at a church?

I just took a look at some photos on the silverstone homepage.

Where does the powersupply go? http://prntscr.com/atsefd

 

It doesnt fit a 3.5" hard drive anyways. I would consider something with a disk drive, since the churchs i use, still watch movies on dvds and such stuff. Consider a new case.

 

Edit: I would go for something like this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/4WNnsY

The CPU is below the minimum requirements for PP6 although that probably isn't the biggest issue is the requirement is to be able to use all of the features which I doubt you will? we are using an AMD 3 core and it works fine.

 

Bigger issue however is that you will need a graphics card on board will not cut it.

 

We bought a 7850 on ebay for my church and it works well

U need a actual graphics card for a presentation program? That's interesting...

 

Edit: Just looked it up. The say you only need one if u use a large amounts of HD Videos. So a integrated modern graphic processor should do just fine?

So again PP is a massive bit of software so it all depends on how many of its features you will be using at once.

 

If you are going to by running a HD projector and then have a HD video background with text on top and then want the transition on top to be completely fluid then maybe the i3 will run out of horses? but perhaps not.

 

My opinion would be that if the OP usage means that they are able to run pro presenter on such low end hardware then perhaps they should look at if they actually need something as high end in terms of software as PP. There are lots of cheaper (alot! and some free) alternatives.

 

We were using OpenLP before moving to PP6 which is open source and I would highly recommend.
