    Hi
    Would one of the above be suitable for small pc and if so is it strong enough for
    web browsing ,email and music , don't need a monitor as i have 21, Dell and keyboard and mouse. Would need
    Windows 7 OS
    Ram / Motherboard / SSD / and any thing else you think i might need was going to go with Shuttle XS35GSV 3L but i haven't a clue whats compatible with it. Budget around E 500 and could i upgrade these parts at a later date if need be, also the Hardwareversand.de could they put this together for me. :confused:
    Many Thanks.

    With the Thermaltake SD 101 you just have to build it around a mini itx motherboard

    Item|Price
    Thermaltake SD 101, 180W Netzteil, mini-ITX|€106.07
    ASRock B75M-ITX, Sockel 1155, ITX|€73.49
    Crucial M4 128GB SSD 6,4cm (2,5")|€101.84
    MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit SB-Version Englisch|€85.50
    Intel Pentium G2130 Box, LGA1155|€82.21
    Rechner - Zusammenbau|€20.00
    4GB G.Skill PC3-10667U CL9|€25.19
    Shipping|€18.99
    Total|€513.29

    This build is probably overkill and can easily do web browsing ,email and music.
    When you add Rechner - Zusammenbau to the order they will build it for you.
    You can add more ram or replace the hard drive with a bigger one at a later date.

    I didn't know if you needed a DVD drive you can add this if you do

    How about this?

    It even has decent entry level gaming performance. I'm not a fan of cases that come with psu's. The psu's tend to be very low quality and for that kind of money you have better options.

    There will be another gen of cpu's on this socket as well so there will be upgrade options. You can add a dedicated graphics card as well if you want better game performance.

    -edit- Tuxy beat me to it :) You have 2 options now at least.

    Item|Price
    Cooler Master Elite 120 Advanced, Mini-ITX, ohne Netzteil|€41.36
    Corsair VS Serie VS350, Non-Modular, 80+|€29.36
    AMD A10 5800K Black Edition mit AMD Radeon HD 7660D Grafikeinheit, Box, FM2|€113.84

    TP-Link TL-WN722N|€9.54

    Yeah the a10 is the way to go if you want to do some basic gaming on the system.

    I didn't think there was much choice with ITX as most the cases come with a PSU in that form factor.

    TTuxy and BloodBath
    Many thanks for the spec,s .I am going to go with BloodBath,s due to the upgrade options.
    You mentioned in the post about a dedicated graphics card could you recommend one for me also one question about the
    T P Link it's not in stock will this hold up the build ? and would I get a decent signal with this as the UPC box is upstairs
    in the sons bedroom and this pc will be in the kitchen directly underneath . At the moment I am using the plugs that go in to
    the wall sockets wiring all over the place nightmare. I am ready to order as soon as you let me know about the graphics card ?
    BloodBath in one of your post,s a few days back you posted a link for high end cases 100 euro,s or more any chance you could
    put this up again was searching for it but couldn't find it as i will need another build in three weeks time as this PC is for a family member
    Many Thanks for all your help.

    How much do you have to spend on a dedicated gpu?

    Something like this is good value and suitable for a small low power build like that.

    Your like to the wifi adaptor did not work but if it should be ok once it's usb.

    It's impossible for us to tell what your signal will be like though.

    If you are going for a dedicated graphics card then don't bother with the A10 5800k. The whole point of getting it is that it has the best integrated graphics on any processor.

    You would be better off with an fx 6300 if going that route. This would change the build a fair bit though.

    I have no idea about the signal strength in your kitchen or how good exactly that wireless card is. You could get a signal tester program for a smart phone to see what it's like.

    What kind of case are you looking for in what build?

    It will have to be intel then if it's still a itx build as AM3 boards are not available in ITX.
