Isn't the 4670 better? I think you should go with that.

Pretty good I must say but I think we should get him a better power supply (350 watts is cutting it close). I thinking this one since its super dupper efficient http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139008.

Yeah, i don't really like that psu either. It is up to him and if he is willing to spring for the added security that the psu would offer.

use this cpu close to wolfdale price but better in every way.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103694

however, if you are gonna game a better GPU is better than a CPU. You could upgrade to a 4770. So get the atholon x2 2.8 regor($60) and pair that with a 4770 it will be a sufficient gaming machine.

The motherboard and RAM that you would have to buy for that processor are a bit pricey.
