He has about $800 to spend +/- a little I would assume, so anyway he wants to play starcraft and WoW on it. I would assume those games are not very demanding. So any sugenstions on AMD based builds would be great. Thanks.

He can build a very decent machine for around 800 dollers. Does he have a screen ect and tower to put it in? because that saves about 300-400 dollers.

 I kind of like this. You can tweak it a bit if you want but this is what I would do. This is all from NewEgg.

Ok, so I did some looking around. Got http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128519 , http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150561, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233144 ,http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819106010 .

The rest of the parts I know will work. Will these work well witch each other, the power supply ect is basic corsair 500w case ect I figured I dont need to post. Anyway I was wondering 6 or 4 core CPU, 4 is $50 less. I'd take suggestions on CPU/video card/memory changes if anyone has any.
