Small-Load Work PC

Greetings, all!

 

My father asked me how much it would cost him to upgrade his memory, and I told him that since his motherboard is so old, he would need to pretty much overhaul his rig, if I can even call it that.  What I need is a build strong enough to handle the newest version of Office and a few Chrome tabs.  He doesn't need anything special, just something that won't hold him back.  I'm an avid user of PCPartPicker, so if anyone wants to link me to a build there, that'd be great.

 

Thanks!
