Hi everyone!
Im new to this site and love it. I've been building my own computers for a while now, and am currently setting up a good friend of mine with a gaming rig.
Budget:
He has a the max of about $1000 to spend, he'd like to stay around $900 but im sure i can persuade him to go all out if needed
Usage:
High end gaming. He would like it be able to handle upcoming games such as Star Craft 2.
Preferred Website for parts:
The only site i order parts from anymore is Newegg.com. I've had bad experiences anytime i try to save a few bucks by picking a different site.
Part Preferences:
Id prefer to use an AMD Processor and ATI GPU
Overlocking:
I can handle doing some overclocking for him but i probably wont do an extreme amount of it.
Crossfire:
Im more than happy to do crossfire setups.
What he has:
Keyboard, Mouse, Hard Drive, Monitor.
So far on my own research ive found the following.
Case:

What do you guys think? I'm pretty open to suggestions. It was fun picking those parts out because the most ive had for a budget before was $600.
