Think of doing this build for a friend. She's not into gaming, but likes surfing the Net & doing video work. Any suggestions would be welcome & is it a value for money rig? I have told her she might be able to get these specs on a ready made system for the price it would cost for me to buy the components a do the build. but I'm not really sure. Thanks, David. ........................................................................................................

Viewsonic never seemed to be very reliable manufacturer for me... But who knows If your friend doesn't mind wide screen, I suggest SAMSUNG LCD 205BW 20 " WIDE 6ms 700:1
