€600 Build for A Noob

Copper_pipe

Right my mate want to get himself a new pc after XMAS so I suggested the lads in the Pc Building and Upgrading Forum.

What he says he needs is a machine to run football manager, Solidworks and Itunes

Budget is 600 plus shipping.

He can get Windows for 45 because he is a student. He does not need a monitor right now as his TV will do the job. He already Has Keyboard/Mouse/Speakers.Luckily he has a 1tb HDD he got online a few weeks ago, so no HDD needed. If there is room for a SSD add it in .
So he needs a wireless card.
He is also happy to pay buy bank transfer/paypal/cc.

Hope thats all the info you need.

Regards,
Copper_pipe

How about this?
He will need a HDMI cable too, they are cheap on HWVS.

Solid build, I wouldn't change anything with it except maybe drop down the graphics card a bit. Don't need a 6870 for football manager really

True enough - it would probably do for FM 2016!

You could step up the case too - maybe the bitfenix shinobi?

Edit: just noticed the case didn't come up! I had picked the bitfenix merc alpha

If he'll be doing a lot of CAD an i7 might not be a bad idea.
