building pc for my gma
###Build Help/Ready:
Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do)
yes
What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
Daily driver for my grandma. She also babysits my nephew a lot so within the next few years he will most likely be using it for light gaming. Hence the I5 as it will be a little more future proof than a I3. Wanted something I can drop a GPU into in the next few years.
If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, FPS, game settings)
daily use, web browsing, emails, word docs, expand ability for light gaming in the future.
What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?
$450
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
USA
