Specs for a basic office PC

[darth_626]

Hi All!

 

I hope you are well

 

I am in the process of putting together an office PC for my dad. I would like this PC to last for quite a while and its main use is basic document creation and emails.

I currently have chosen:

• CoolerMaster Elite 130 Case
• 8 GB Kingston HyperX Fury RAM Kit (4x4)
• ASRock H110M-ITX Motherboard
• ADATA Ultimate SU700 ASU700SS-120GT-C
• 500 GB Seagate Drive (from current PC)
• CoolerMaster MWE 450 PSU

I am still trying to choose a CPU.

I would like to get an i3 from the LGA 1151 architecture.

 

Which CPU from that architecture would you recommend and why?

 

Thank you very much for your time and have a wonderful day!

the cheapest kabylake pentium will be enough with 2 cores+HT, no need for an i3.

For document creation 4 gigs should be enough so you could save some money if you don't want to game
