Zotac H61ITX-A-E inside a Morex T3500 powered by an Intel Pentium G850.
As for memory I'm not sure... I suppose total 8 gigs with low profile heatsink, or probably one without since it prolly wont heat up whatsoever.
For SSD I'd definitely get a Plextor M3 Pro, but the T3500 only supports one SSD drive, so you might want to get a 256 gig one instead, maybe an Intel 520?

He wants his case to be "eye-candy", and you're recommending a T3500, wizarD?
That case is.. well, put it simply, ugly as fuck
I'd much rather recommend a Lian-Li mATX case instead (but that's just me), for example the V352B:
Then stick a mATX-mobo, 8Gb RAM, a 2500k with say a Hyper 212 or something on it, and run off the integrated Intel HD GPU - silent, pretty cheap, small, and suits your needs perfectly.

Intel 520 is good (only 240GB), but Samsung 830 is larger (256GB) and thus better price/gb.
crucial m4 is way cheaper than both of above, but also way slower.

If I wanted a tiny, subtle computer I wouldn't put a lot of attention to aesthetics... and 1k budget is pretty retarded when it comes to just having an office computer!

Though in all honesty if he wants to run on CPU GPU he should just get an AMD CPU, they are far superior than Intels. Maybe trinity?

He obviously doesn't need or want GPU grunt.
Intel models will be up to the job. and be far faster at cpu related tasks.

If you guys actually read the thread you would know that he wanted to run a computer preferably with no graphics card, and AMD are miles ahead of Intel when it comes to CPU accelerated graphics.

swap CPU power he wants for gpu power he will not use? brilliant.
If you read the post he states he does not wish to play games. so zero advantage in AMD APU.

Just get intel with a low profile vidcard then?

If that is the case he wont be needing an i5-2500k... unless he wants to burn money... most of the performance will come from the SSD

I agree 2500k might be overkill. Much cheaper chips available that will run rings round any AMD APU and remain cool/quiet with little effort.
