Need help picking parts

Shawn221 · May 6, 2014

Building a $1000 Gaming PC for a friend including a 1080p 22" monitor, shipping, and NJ tax (7%). He would like it to be as small as possible and as quiet as possible, but as long as it isn't vacuum cleaner, he's fine. He has a Windows install disk so he doesnt need an OS.

if he has an installation disk, that doesn't necessarily mean he has a valid product key. Does he? Is this copy of Windows new?

Entomber :

Yes it's a retail copy from BestBuy.
