Building a small form factor emulation pc PS3 and under

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

  • Emulation only for PS3/xbox360vand under

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

  • $500-$800

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

  • Now

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

  • Tower and OS

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

  • Maryland USA less than 10 mins from a microcenter

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated

  • Not reusing any parts other than peripherals

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?**

  • No I've locking I would like to treat it as a console

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)**

  • No

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?**

  • Would like to keep it small if possible but I understand the need for a gpu in my use case as well as need for airflow not really concerned about rgb or windows as I am with it being compact

Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

  • Windows can be separate but if it can be included that would be great
