My ex-wife has asked me to build her an inexpensive new computer. She does a lot of surfing and playing simple games which aren't going to tax the system much (like "Bejeweled.") The important task, which she is having problems with now, is streaming: she wants to watch hi-def (1080) YouTube videos and HD Netflix streaming without GPU/CPU-caused problems. Overclocking is out, or at least we want the computer to perform its assigned tasks without needing to be overclocked. I prefer a single video card to linked SLI/Crossfile GPUs because there's less to go wrong. There won't be any fancy sound system so stereo is adequate. Suggestions and recommendations?
