Hey guys,
My friend is looking into buying a gaming PC but only has a budget of $600AUD ($525USD). I figured the best place to ask was here so could you guys help me out with a budget build? If possible could you build it on pccasegear.com as it's an Australian store with Australian prices, and his from, you guessed it Australia. Thank you very much guys

What i came up with on the site you proposed: http://www.pccasegear.com/sc/zuG

But as bsod1 suggested there is a r9 270 for $4 less on centre com. The 270 is way better than 260x so i would get that card from there instead.

+ In the end if he wants to keep his budget he will have to purchase from different stores.
