My nephew needs a new computer for gaming.
Is it possible to get a full system (excluding mouse, keyboard and lcd) that will be on par or exeeding an amd 6000 gts 640mb? He had a look on a prebuilt for that price, but missed out on the buy.

I got myself an amd rig, just before the core2 intels and the many variations of gt's and gt's. And I find it a bit confusing, as to wich brand of cpu's and gpu's are faster than other.

So could you specmasters please aid me:)
 
came up with the following, 8800 GTS 512MB is included but if 500 is the absolute max then swap it for the GT version.

Thanks, looks nice. Unclocked, will that cpu squash the amd 6000?
Otherwise the 6 £ something is within economy range, so spot on.

And how about the lcd jungle. You know any good lcd around the 150 £ mark?
