Building a computer for a friend for work, he does financial analysis and runs streaming stock quotes. Looking to run 3 monitors and running multiple apps at the same time (youtube, itunes, excel). Doesn't care too much for graphics, won't be gaming at all. Trying to keep the budget around $500. Can anyone make recommendations for CPU / MoBo / RAM ?

Thanks
 
you will be looking at an amd system for that budget..shop around at newegg and you will get an idea of what to expect..is it atx or micro atx your building and you will need a fairly decent video card to run your monitor setup...

he only needs a 5750 at most.....thats pretty cheap.....
 
Could also look into an i3 530 but you would need an extra gpu for the multi monitors.
