My friend would like me to build him a computer for $800 that would be able to play Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, and maybe Battlefield 2. This is what I came up with:
ASUS A8N-SLI Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail: $115
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131524
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 1GHz HT 1MB L2 Cache Socket 939 Processor: $212
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819103539
Corsair TWINX1024-3200C2 1GB DDR400 XMS3200 Dual-Channel Memory w/Heat Spreader Retail: $91

eVGA 256-P2-N563-AX Geforce 7900GT CO 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card: $319
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814130281
I would like to give him the option to go duel-core, and 2GB (4 x 512MB) of memory in the future. Let me know what you would do differently.
