Matt,
that is quite easy for you to find out in your market: You will need an
1155 motherboard, the cheapest sandy bridge or ivy bridge processor,
and, I guess, 1 GB or RAM.
I got myself the cheapest dual core celeron with 2GB of RAM, it was just
a little more expensive and could also do HD 720P in CPU.
I wish good shopping!
