I'm building a new PC for my dad, they don't use it for anything to taxing just browsing the internet/email, maybe a bit of solitaire.

I want to make the PC as small as possible so going with an ITX mobo and using onboard graphics, storage isn't that great either so should be able to use a single 2.5" SSD drive. I'm also looking at an i3 processor and 8G of RAM

I'm looking for any suggestions on an ITX case, at the moment the Streacom F1C is the smallest I can find but I've read a few reviews regarding poor cooling and high temperatures. Its also seems a bit expensive.

I'm a fan of the In-Win Chopin with it's nice aesthetics, good cooling performance (basically 100% dependent on CPU cooler performance) and very reasonable price.

I am doing a build for my mum and going to do a ryzen 2200g and F1c build. Basically I would recommend 2200G, or a g4600 build. The g4600 is the cheapest 7th gen intel with the 630 graphics, the g4560 has the 610.
