Amd advice

This is a build for a friend.. hes on a really low budget and will only use this computer for small office use, probably some browsing and sync his iphone/burn music. This won't be used for any type of gaming.

I'm only looking for a ram/cpu/mb(must have onboard gfx card) since I have a few parts around and will help him. Looking into AMD but I'm not experienced with amd or budget rigs.

Was looking at the Cheapest X2 but idk....

Will order tomorrow. Budget is 200 including shipping to PR(00927)

Had this in mind:
AMD Athlon II X2 255 Regor 3.1GHz Socket AM3 65W Dual-Core Desktop Processor ADX255OCGMBOX
BIOSTAR TA870U3+ AM3 AMD 870 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard - $111.98

But the MB is a shellshocker deal and prob wont be on tomorrow...

G.SKILL F3-10666CL9D-4GBNS - $39.99

Any ideas? 😀
 
If you have a microcenter nearby they have a deal where if you buy the phenom II x2 560BE you get a motherboard for free.
 
I wish, lol. I live in Puerto Rico, MC doesn't exist here. CompUsa sucks here and so does BestBuy.
