Howdy. So here's the deal: My wife is starting a new job soon doing CART captioning of college lectures for deaf students. She needs to have two windows full screen simultaneously, one for her transcription software and one on the Internet. I've built gaming PCs before but not in the last ~3 years and I'm unsure of exactly how much power is needed here. Is a video card even needed for this type of setup, or can I get by with on-board graphics?
Basically I just need a benchmark of the PC guts (MoBo, RAM, PSU, HDD, video card). I have an old ATX case that can be reused and the keyboard, mouse, OS. Monitors will be purchased later (probably Black Friday) but if you can recommend some as well, that would be great. We're looking for a build hopefully under $300 (not including monitors, of course). Thanks!
