Description:
A friend I knew back in college wanted to build her first custom computer for her personal/work computer. She doesn’t play PC games but needed a computer that would allow her to work on dual monitors (dvi) as well as multitask in between design programs (she could if she really wanted to).
I beefed up the memory to 4GB. Since most of her work is stored on external units, she didn’t need a large hard drive, so a 250 was suffice. Overall a clean and fast build.
