Just need to figure out where the preen that $250 off. I dunno, I always get to this point where I can't bear to touch anything when I build a computer for someone. But THIS part is the best value yadda yadda. Help me, I'm an impulse buyer! Haha.

Thanks in advance!
 
that processor is a horrible waste of money, at that price you could get a e8400. but since youre on a budget get a e2200 or e2180 which are great and 70ish
 
A 4850 can handle pretty much anything at that res aside from Crysis and Age Of Conan. Since your friend won't be playing any of those games, it'll do fine.
 
i would still get the WD640AAKS over any other hard drive. fast as raptors, more storage than the 500s, and only 90-100 bucks.
