    A friend proposes building a PC for me.

    useage as follows...

    Display on my existing Dual x 24 inch monitors
    Play online poker
    Listen to music
    Download and stream movies

    The proposed spec....

    ASRock FM2A55M-DGS, AMD A55 FCH, FM2, DDR3, SATA II - 3Gb/s, RAID, PCIe 2.0 (x16), D-Sub/DVI, MATX

    AMD A4 5300, S FM2, Virgo Core, Dual Core 3.4GHz, AMD Radeon HD 7480D 723MHz, 65W, Retail

    8GB (4GBx2), 240-pin DIMM, DDR3 PC3-12800 memory module

    Are these decent components and sufficient for my needs?
    Is €420 reasonable?
    Would it make more sense to opt for windows 8?

    Ty for taking the time.
