Budget Intel & NVIDIA Build For Friend $800

It looks like a good build overall. I like it.

If you went amd you could get more gpu for the money: Phenom II and 7870 xt for about the same price and get 3 kick ass games.

Subtotal: $771.90 (i did not use any codes and there are a few you could use as well as a MIR card)

You could also sub in a new mobo (a bit basic) and i3 for just shy of 800. (if you do get rid of the CPU cooler)
