ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: My friend wants a PC for mostly low end gaming and homework. By low end gaming I mean Diablo II, Halo PC, and other undemanding games. I don't think he would boost the graphics settings hardly any. I tried piecing something together myself, but it came to more than $500, not including the OS, monitor, or case. Also, he thinks it would be cool to have a 1TB hard drive. Nor for storage, just for the ability to think, "I have a 1TB hard drive."
Heres what I had:
CPU: AMD Athlon II 250
Mobo: ASUS M4A78LT
GPU: XFX Radeon HD 4670 1GB

RAM: Patriot Gaming Series 4GB DDR3 1333
HDD: WD Caviar Black 1TB
PSU: Antec Neo 400W
Optical Drive: LITE-ON Black 24X
Could you guys help me build him a cool rig for the specified quota of <$600. Of course, the less money he spends that happier he is.
