Yikes, that's barely readable now... And could have been done as a 1kb text file anyway. But I digress.
Although hardly an expert in gaming systems myself, two red flags stood out: 1) use of an i3 CPU (pick an i5 instead, i3 will suck for many games - downgrade the video card if necessary to make budget fit) 2) deliberately choosing a motherboard and a video card from direct competitors (suggest getting them from the same mfgr to avoid conflicting "optimizer" utilities)
Other thoughts: - the PSU can probably be whatever generic crap NewEgg sells this week without making much difference
That's all for now, -Adam -Adam

Well, I decided not to ask this at the round table yesterday as it would have taken too much time and have lots of possible options ...
a friend has a friend who has a 14 year old teenager looking at building a gaming machine .. he put together some info and this friend is looking for some feedback
I've attached a pdf of what they were looking at as options - not sure where the pricing was scraped from -- but with guys on-line who are in the business would have a better idea ...
What's your guys takes on this? I'm not into gaming machine configurations ...
Dan.
