My cousin came to me a few days ago and he would like a PC that will make it so he could play all the games currently out now, with mass storage. He said he doesn't need it to be jesus speed. He is going to be going to college soon so this will be his college PC aswell. He would LIKE to stay under $1000 (including monitor).

I am having a hard time deciding if he should go 939 or AM2. AM2 will cost more but it keeps him safe for the future, but 939 is getting pretty cheap.

What do you guys think would be the best set up for him? If you could go into enough detail and give links that would be great. Thanks for the help.
 
i run 939 and it wil run any game out. IMHO you should get a 939 and spend the money saved on a nice GPU and lots of ram. 1k is nothing to laugh at but if you also looking at a monitor you will eat up that 1k really fast.
