the hudson d3 seems to support my needs more and for a better price. this build will be for browsing and office work only. day to day stuff, no gaming or video editing. is there any major reason for me to go with the bolton d4? from what i saw and read, it doesnt look that way, but all input is appreciated! thank you

I'm not suuuuper knowledgeable about mobos, but from what I can tell, the D4H is more efficient (in reference to power, saving you money eventually). Unless you're going for a raid config, d4h is going to be higher quality. I don't know how much your uncle is of a techie, but both are good choices.
*Fact check me one that*

thanks jon, he is not techie at all. this computer will literally be for internet browsing and word documents, printing, faxing, email. etc etc. all he is looking for is reliability and speed. i have some knowledge with stuff, and i just didnt see if its worth the extra 20 bucks or so for d4. appreciate the input, maybe a mod or something can come in and elaborate more
