Additional Comments: Home office build that will be mainly be used for MS Office applications and internet use. Even though tasks are relatively light the person requesting wants it to be able to be pretty fast for a long time and specifically requested a SSD. Dual monitors will be used (new 19 - 21.5" TBD and old 17"). Looking for mobo with lots of USB (at least 8 would be nice, doesn't have to be 3.0). 90 gb SSD should be enough space for awhile. Mainly looking for PSU and Mobo recommendations and general advice for a new builder. Also, would a cheap GPU be advised for a dual monitor setup? Cannibalized wireless network card will also take up a PCI slot.
