Hey, my friend wants a gaming PC, but he's on a tight budget. He doesn't care about running games as ultra-high settings. He's mostly worried about getting Crysis to run at all, and would be satisfied with low settings. I've chosen some parts that I think work quite nicely. His budget was originally $450, but he allowed the $10 extra because he thought the case I chose looked really nice (which would've been the item to downgrade).

Not the best, but I think it should work ok. I'm still a bit of a newbie, and feel insecure about my choice of parts.
