Hey guys looking to do a very cheap build for my dad for Christmas. Anyone selling cheap parts or know where to buy cheap parts? Yes looking to run programs like auto cad. I just wanna build him something cheap to get him going.

 

[Ryan Kinsey]

Can you give us a budget?

 

[Ryan Kinsey]

Does it need to include a monitor and other peripherals?

 

[Ben Collins]

Nope no peripherals or monitor. Don't really wanna go over 200 Euro. I'm already after getting a hdd and am about to get 4gb ddr2 ram and an amd athlon x64

 

[Ben Collins]

Going with amd for multitasking so needs to suit that cpu

I mean, at least don't get him a bunch of already obsolete stuff like DDR2 & vintage AMD stuff.

Don't you think it's easier to just buy a secondhand Dell Optiplex 790? You can get an i5 2400 with 4GB RAM with that budget, although you might have to replace the HDD.

 

[Ben Collins]

As I said man I'm open to suggestions. Just wanna get the best system I can for that low budget. Hdd isn't an issue I have a few at home that are good
