Bare in mind he already has HDD,s case, monitor etc. Just wants new guts.

What do you guys think? It's for a friend, he wants to play Supreme Commander as best he can, and also wants to use it for a lot of graphics work. (he's artsy..)

Any thoughts? Wasn't sure about the motherboard or the heatsink..or the PSU...or any of it for that matter.

Comments/advice welcome

As far as possible...though I'd rather not go into the realms of volt modding and water cooling, etc. Just a nice up to 3-3.5ghz would be good.
 
Think it's an Antec PlusView 1000 (or at least extremely similar!) Quite big tower. All HDDs are SATA currently as far as I know, if thier not, I'll get him to buy a caddy for his IDE stores.

Sorry should probably have provided a lot more info to begin with, didn't think properly.
 
Mainly artwork on some big photos, bit of video stuff, likes to Fraps games a lot. He keeps his PC in a bit of a mess tbh, despite being relatively computer literate. Thought the quad would also give him some future headway for upcoming games since that's what he uses the rig for mainly.
