    Default Budget PC

    Hello Everyone,

    I generally don't build budget pc's but a friend of mine is looking to get a new computer. He is currently on a laptop and it can't play any games at all from what he is saying. His budget is max 600 bucks, now to me this is a small budget but i am not sure. His goal is to get a PC that can play todays games and not fall over dead is this possible? He doesn't have anything to upgrade from but does have a TV which i told him he may have to use as a monitor untill he gets more cash becuase a monitor would cut into the already small budget he has. So i'm thinking something like this

    - Case
    - CPU
    - Motherboard
    - Video Card
    - Hard Drive
    - DVD [unless blue rays have come down]
    - Ram
    - Mouse
    - Keyboard
    - Thermal Paste

    Think thats a bare bones pc right there
