Hi everyone, I'm new to Ubuntu but since I'm building my first desktop PC (cheap-build) and I don't want to put Windows on it as that license is expensive.
How well will Ubuntu 12.04 run on the following specs?
BIOSTAR A780L3G Motherboard (AMD 780L Chipset, 1333MHz DDR3, SATA 3.0 Gb/s, RAID, 6-CH Audio, Gigabit LAN, Radeon HD 3000 Graphics)
AMD HDZ965FBK4DGM Phenom II X4 965 Processor (Quad Core, 6MB L3 Cache, 2MB L2 Cache, 3.40GHz)
Thermaltake CL-P0503 CPU Cooler (70mm Fan, Rifle Bearing)
Sony Optiarc AD7280S-OB 24x DVDRW Drive (24x, SATA)
ADATA Premier Series AD3U1333C4G9-SH Desktop Memory Module (4GB, PC3-10666, DDR3-1333MHz, 240-pin DIMM)
Western Digital WD5000AAKX Caviar Blue Hard Drive (500GB, SATA 6Gbps, 7200RPM, 16MB)
My uses are the following:
Web browsing (Chrome: 5-10 tabs open, flash video)
Office applications (LibreOffice, Evernote)
Media (Music, movies, photos)
Multitasking (10 tabs open on Chrome, LibreOffice running, with Pandora playing)
Also, because I'm new to computer building, do you see any problems with the hardware I am choosing to buy?
Thank you so much!
