I did not see the budget limit..stick with the 7870 or if there's a noticeable difference in prices between the 7870 and 7850 go with the 7850.. that card will do good for wow..sc2..lol and the other stuff he likes

Not to sure what that is "MAYA"

 

[DeeJay1337]

Are you looking into maybe working with used parts from the FS section? I just pieced some great items from there.

MAYA is serious business 3D animation software. http://usa.autodesk.com/maya/

I'm no expert, but if he's running that I would imagine he'll need some computing horsepower.
