I'm building a computer for my friend. The component list is displayed below.
Hopefully you can help me pick parts that are the best bang for his hard
earned buck. He will be using his new computer mainly for Microsoft Office
applications, film/photo editing, TV and movie watching and some light
gaming. The budget he gave me is fifteen hundred canadian. I'm buying all
the parts at "http://www.tigerdirect.ca/" so I am limited to their selection. I
narrowed down my component picks in each category. But I'm still not sure
of my selection. I'm hoping you can help me find the component in each
category that would best suite my friend's needs and budget (for I don't
want to disappoint him.)
Thank you in advance for your help, I really appreciate your effort! And
naturally my friend will be in debt to anyone who helps bring his dream
system into reality (He's been saving up for awhile to purchase a half decent computer.)
