Cheap computer for parents
Have been out of the "scene" for a while now. Parents want a computer to do basic browsing (banking, youtube, etc.), maybe some word processing (resume), and unlikely to do any gaming. I threw this together:
CPU: AMD - Ryzen 3 2200G 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($126.95 @ shopRBC)
Motherboard: MSI - B350M GAMING PRO Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($92.00 @ Vuugo)
Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory ($111.99 @ Newegg Canada)
Storage: Crucial - MX300 275GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive ($102.87 @ Amazon Canada)
Case: Cooler Master - N200 MicroATX Mini Tower Case ($54.99 @ Amazon Canada)
Power Supply: EVGA - BT 450W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($44.99 @ Amazon Canada)
Optical Drive: Asus - DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer ($25.50 @ Vuugo)
Operating System: Microsoft - Windows 10 Home OEM 64-bit ($117.75 @ Vuugo)
Total: $677.04
Any feedback? Am I missing anything? See any compatibility issues? (besides all this BIOS nonsense that I've been reading about).
Budget is under $800 if possible, will reuse external peripherals like monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc.
Thanks!
