Hi all,
I am building a PC for my girlfriend to use when working from home. She will likely want to use remote desktop, no gaming probably watch some netflix/youtube from time to time. I am not up on the new hardware so am looking for some suggestions; I just threw together the following parts in a few minutes on a "oh that looks nice/I want it-basis" and without too much attention to price. The case is about the only thing I am set on since she has already approved it (and I want to get my hands on one!). My main requirement is that it be FAST. She will likely have a 27"ish monitor and we will want the option of running two but I'm not up on the integrated graphics options. Also need help picking out a wireless network adapter--any suggestions?
All thoughts and comments welcome!
