He only has a budget of around $500 right now - which would include a monitor. It would mostly be used for work and the occasional games (he plays FFXIV from time to time). We already have Windows 7 and whatever other software he needs. He'd like to have 8GB of ram and 500gigs of HD space if possible.
Need help building a computer for my dad.
