I voted for techmo34's build. I liked the Antec 300 case suggestion. Great cooling solution when the system is put under heavy stress when all the heavy office related typing using Word takes place. The 140mm roof fan will come in handy around the office. Blocks out the noise of any pesky punch presses that may otherwise be bothersome. But the real reason I voted for Tecmo's build is fear of what will happen if He doesn't win.

Nice build Xurwin. I recently built a budget office cpu very similar, only difference being an antec 300 and slightly different ram and psu. But it runs extremely well for the price point of under $500.

This is hilarious :D .

Yeah, aren't antec 300 and coolermaster elite 330 a total overkill for office PC?

Regarding Kingston RAM, I bought that once and had to RMA it because it was bad, and also got some recommendations not to buy their RAM... Could be just bad luck, though, and if you're willing to take a chance to need to use the warranty, it is the cheapest after all.

I have three Antec 300's. For the price, $39 for one, they are a great for a budget PC. One of them did take off like a helicopter and wiped out a secretary's lunch one day. Sunflower seeds and vitamin water all over her halter top.

I've used Kingston RAM in several builds and I've never had a problem. Not to say there aren't problem with any manufacturer but I haven't had the same experience.
