Preliminary this is what he sent me:
Quote:
700$ is a decent budget for a gaming PC. I have recently pieced together one for ****** or something for just under 700$. Specs are:
aTI 5770 1GB
2GB of Corsair RAM
2.9GHZ 2x processor
320GB HD
And other parts.
It's a great PC for gaming and solid for day to day shit as well. Getting 4GB of RAM in a <700$ build is pretty difficult without completely destroying graphical power. Luckily alls he has to do is grab another stick of the same RAM a few days, weeks or months down the road when he can afford it to toss into his PC. The difference between 2GB and 4GB is actually fair unnoticeable for most things. He'd notice it bigtime in WoW, but unless he's a heavy multitasker he won't notice it too much before he can afford another stick.
It's just all around the best way to stay future proofed, graphically strong and still solid with everything else. If he could spare another 100$ or so he could bump up to a Tri-Core processor and possibly 4GB of RAM or bump up to a 460GTX.

Trying to see why he went more for a gaming build though.
Like I said: If you want to cut out the middle man and talk to him directly just pm me your email and I'll send it to him.
