Perfect budget PC for software developers
aw3c2: You need to be more specific. What OS, what programming, what other hobbies?If you want to use virtualisation make sure to get a CPU that supports Intel VT-x or AMD-V.I would suggest an Athlon II X2 240. It is very cheap and has a lot of power.If you want to go into CUDA or OpenCL get an NVIDIA GTS or GTX.SSD is overkill in my opinion. Rather get 4GB RAM and use a ramdisk when you need fast IO (is that IO, I have no idea).
