Work. My wife sells stuff on ebay. Also, we watch a lot of streaming videos.

$384 entry level gaming pc, will play most games at decent settings, not sure what you will be using it for, so whatever, literally the cheapest parts without buying a gpu, https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KjVkwc this will also play any streaming services you want, you can plug it into any tv as well, the down side is you will have to get a boot kit from amd to upgrade the bios on the motherboard, but really cheapest "decent" pc

for work/email stuff, look for a cheap lenovo thinkpad anywhere, amazon has some crappy ones with chrome OS, which you can change to a linux distro easily enough, if you need more space you can throw in a micro SD card usually in them or an external HD

Thank you very much. I always associate gaming computers with "way to expensive for me". I will check out your advice.

Newest Nvidia chips will come out mid July if you can wait that long. When newest chip sets come out, it will drive the price of older things down quite a bit.

Yeah man, anytime, I've gone through the boot kit process a few times, amd always needs a confirmation from the mother board manufacturer that states your model is in fact not up to date with the BIOS to run the processor.

What does she sell?

Mostly unique items. Some clothing, but mostly hard goods. Like she just sold a rug for $200.
