I dont know THAT much about hardware, ive built computers before but I always get multiple opinions before I buy so thats what im doin here again. My moms getting her masters soon so im building her a new comp for a present because the one she has now sucks. She mainly uses it for web surfing, some video games but nothing demanding, pretty much general usage although that might change after this. This is what I want to build her not including the peripherals.
