My buddies going from a job at the office to doing it all from home because he's having a kid. I'm trying to help him out build a desktop which he can also use to game occasionally although he says he probably won't have much time. Any help is greatly appreciated!

This build starts with a 240gb SSD. If he knows he will need more space, he can pony up the 60 for a new drive. if he does not know yet, he can simply wait and buy one later. in my experience a lot of people do not use more than 240gb of space, even for work computers.

don't ever buy the ssdnow solid state, it's garbage, just listen don't question
with the g3258 processor you can overclock it on the msi p33 motherboard, don't buy a fucking z97 for that garbage.
fedox doesn't know what he's doing on pcpp
