Very limited budget RM200 - Athlon 3000G RM200 - MSI a320m a pro max RM154 - ADATA Premier 4GB DDR4 2666MHz UNBUFFERED-DIMM 2x4GB or ADATA 4GB DDR4 2666MHZ UNBUFFERED-DIMM DESKTOP PC RAM 2x4GB ( difference is premier and non premier, not sure what the differences is though.) RM70 - PNY CS900 120GB RM 45 - AVF ATX 500W With 12CM Fan Power Supply Total - RM669 Reuse 1tb HDD from previous rig And https://postimg.cc/N9ZJn1Pv do you guys perhaps know what cable is connected to this hard drive? I maybe abit to reuse this on my new rig. The usages are multitasking in surfing google (basically watching dramas, and YouTube) and office work at the same time (but not often doing office work, occasionally, mostly on surfing google part) some office work (word, pdf file etc) switch on mostly everyday ( but will be turn off at night ) no gaming planning this build to last at least more than 7 years as the usage is quite low? reusing peripheral and case My previous rig that died (because of one of capacitor bloated on mobo ? ) - Amd Athlon tm 64 x2 , can see on the link that it only work on Amd 2,3 and 3+ which no mobo now is able to support ? I guessing this processor is still working ? - https://postimg.cc/VdpKj8WL (This is the mobo that my old build died ) - https://postimg.cc/K1TJfH07 ( This is the capacitor, the 2nd one is more bloated than the 1st one) -> Which is why the mobo cannot bot, <- The shop retail told me this Asrock motherboard. (not sure the full model ) This is my previous rig power supply btw https://postimg.cc/ThN50WXR , think it is still working fine. That's what i know from the hardware. Thanks for reading through my post, and any help are appreciated ~ Edited - stfu = sifu (Master) typo...

I don't have a specific budget, but I can help you manage or track one if you'd like.

Great option for this purpose—refurbished office PCs offer excellent value. They’re compact, include a Windows license, and work perfectly for the intended use.

Under RM800... (about 190.77 USD)? You're looking for a PC for office tasks and watching dramas. (I might be able to stretch it up to RM1000 (about 238.46 USD), though I could have trouble with that.)

A refurbished Optiplex featuring a 3770 or 2400 rating will suffice.

The main issue could be faulty capacitors, so hiring a technician to replace them might be the best solution.

The Silm form factor tends to be expensive, right? Usually, smaller sizes cost more than standard options. Second-hand parts are reliable—though I bought it from a store and they found the motherboard capacitor swollen (they weren’t sure if they were being honest). They suggested replacing it, saying this build could last a long time, which is what they claimed.

Yes, there are many Optiplex listings available on the used market at affordable prices. You might want to inquire with the seller for additional photos and details about its previous use. If you can, test it out and ask questions about its original purpose.
