Hello there:

Could you have a look at this specc?
My friend's pc blew up. He asked me to build a new one with a budget of 500 pounds. He doesn't overclock or anything.
He just plays WoW, Call of duty, etc

I was thinking of this specc:

Intel Core 2 Quad LGA775 Q6600 2.40GHz Retail / Asus P5K / 2GB Corsair PC2-6400C4 DDR2 Dual Channel Kit - Bundle £208.97
(£245.54)

OcUK GeForce 8800 GT 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail £89.99
(£105.74)

Western Digital Caviar SE16 250GB SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM (WD2500AAKS) £32.99
(£38.76)

Corsair HX 520W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU (CMPSU-520HXUK) £59.99
(£70.49)

Total : £471.05

If you think this is alright or can specc something better/cheaper. Let me know?

Thanks in advance.
 
looks fine.

depending on the operating system he uses winxp 32 bit or vista 64 bit might be worth getting 4gb of memory.
