Hi!

I am planning for a mini-ITX build that will be only used for surfing, MS office and movies.

No need for kb,mouse or monitor.
But would like to have a SSD and a HDD for storage and also to include windows 10.

if budget is abit tight i can stretch it to $600.

Thanks in advance!

Why not an intel nuc? I'm not sure but that system might fit your budget and it definitely good enough for your needs
