I've picked the following parts and I can't decide on the rest. I'll just post what I have so far and I'm hoping someone can help me pick the rest (monitor, keyboard, hard drive, PSU, etc.)
COOLER MASTER CAVALIER 3 CAV-T03-UW Silver Aluminum/Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Retail
CHAINTECH VNF4/Ultra Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 Ultra ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail
eVGA 128-P2-N368-TX Geforce 6600GT 128MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail
fUnc SU-BK-BK Surface 1030 Black Base Mousepad - Retail
AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice 1GHz FSB Socket 939 Processor Model ADA3500BPBOX - Retail
Update Logitech MX518 931352-0403 2-Tone 8 Buttons 1x Wheel USB + PS/2 Optical Mouse - Retail
For monitors I did a little research and I narrowed it down to a few . . . I'm still open to suggestions though:
Viewsonic VX924
Viewsonic VP191B
Samsung 930BF
From what I read these monitors are primarily for gaming . . . I'm not sure what that means but does it matter if he's going to be watching movies and stuff too?
He also needs speakers. His budget is somewhere around $1300. Thanks.
