Hey guys. I am building a pc for a friend of mine. He wants a fast PC for his home computer. It has to have wifi and it wont be for gaming. The only questions I have are if the CPU cooler with fit in the case and if the wireless card will interfere with the graphics card

He really wants in to fast and preferably under $1000! Let me know what you guys think or any problems you see!
Thanks!

The build that you have is not good. The 8350 is the 8320 but comes overclocked.

The gt 640 won't even play minesweeper! haha

And you can get windows for free because it is not worth 100 dollars.

It has to be a smaller case, memory need to stay the same, and how do the motherboards compare? Also good point on the cpu and graphics.

lol well a i3 or a i5 8gb ram you dont need a dedicated cpu cooler just use the stock one

You could actually just use a intel pentium processor

Gtx 550+ for hd youtube videos

Probably could make a fast computer for like $500 less with a fast wifi adapater
