Default New Budget Build

Hey friends!

So my friend is in need of a new computer. He has about 500-600 dollars to spend. He would prefer it to be closer to 500 than the 600 limit. He will be using the computer for gaming. There is no preference on AMD/Intel Nvidia/ATI. We just want the best price/performance value we can find.

He does not need a screen, keyboard, mouse/mouse pad, speakers.
For the OS I was thinking of just doing the $30 Student University deal.

Thanks guys, I really appreciate it.

( I've been attempting this myself, but I really struggle when it comes to the Motherboard and what I need to look for; especially when coupling it with the Processor. )

Edit: Oh, and he will not be overclocking!
