If you aren't gaming then pretty much any video card would do. It might even be a good idea to look at AMD APU's unless you need the processor for doing something. If it's just going to be a general purpose office machine or that kind of work any i3 or A series should work fine too.
Which A processor is best? I think the i3's are more expensive, no?
Could you recommend a cheaper GPU for the FX. All I need is to be able to connect 2 monitors DVI and VGA.
I have a video card but don't know if it would work - Nividia GeForce 9400GT

Good afternoon.
Exactly how much is inexpensive? And where will you buy them? That would help a lot in recommending the best offers
The products I recommend are from Newegg, if you don't live in USA, you won't be able to buy them there.
Mobo: GA-78LMT-USB3, 760GMA-P34 or ASRock 970 PRO3 R2.0 are good choices. All of them for $60, the asrock one looks better but same people have had bsod with it, if you don't mind having perhaps to rma it, that's the best one. The MSI one (the second) has only 2 slots of ram and the gigabyte one only supports ram up to 1333 MHz.

GPU: the most inexpensive gt 630 you can find. If you won't play any demanding game, a passive cooled one is better, as it won't make any noise. They are priced at about $55-60. If you won't play any game at all (angrybirds or plants vs zombies don't count) you can even go with a gt 610.

I would like to spend about $500 including Windows 7 Home. I would like USB 3.0 on the front of the case. I would like a 256gb SSD for my main drive. Maybe an i3 or A8, A6 or A10. 8gb ram. PSU can be in the case or separate. I don't do games. Need a VGA and DVI to connect 2 monitors which I have.
Is that possible?
