Hello, my friend is looking to upgrade his computer. Being college students, we don't have a lot of cash. He got stuck with a crappy Lenovo i3 desktop with integrated graphics. He has trouble with a lot of the games he wants to play. I told him I could build him a decent computer if he gave me some cash. I have some stuff lying around that I am going to use for it.

I need a x58 socket 1366 motherboard with overclocking that can handle a Xeon processor (32nm westmere). I would prefer a board made by EVGA, Gigabyte, ASUS, MSI, etc. I am looking to spend about $80.

I would also like to get a GTX 580 so I can toss him my old card. I am looking to spend around $125. I would also be interested in GTX 660 Ti's as well.

I would entertain GTX 570's, and possibly GTX 480's but a GTX 580 would be preferable since I am coming from a GTX 470. 7950's, R9 270's, and GTX 760's most likely would be out of my price range.

I can pay with pay-pal at the moment.

Thank you for your time,
