I am building a $700 dollar gaming computer for my friend. It will be used mainly for gaming and will be used to replace his old Dell computer. He decided to go with the Intel route because he wants to upgrade to Core 2 Quad when he has more money. Any changes or suggestions will be appreciated. I usually order from www.newegg.com
