I'm a tad confused here...He can't buy anything from an online retailer at all? If thats the case - then I doubt he is going to get anything incredible at those prices. Don't get me wrong - Microcenter has decent prices for a brick and mortar store...but you can find so much more online for less these days. Not to mention the money saved in tax alone (at least in AZ where the tax is 8.3%)
In any case - If he is really not an overclocker and is only looking for a good gaming rig...the bulk of the money should be spent in GPU's and CPU. Mobo won't make a big difference...and I doubt the RAM will make too much difference either.
