Total is $1486.88

He says his budget is about $1500 and doesn't know much about PC's.
His friend made this build.
He plans on playing arma 2, DayZ, Minecraft, and several other games. And recording while doing so. If you could make corrections, etc. THat would be great.

You could probably switch out the 670 for a 680 for very cheap. If he's not planning on overclocking, get a 4770 and a H87 chipset board, it'll save him some money. Although it is always good to have the option of overclocking.

This is a pretty nice build. It should be absolutely fine for what your friend is looking to use it for.

8 performs better and no preference was stated. He can get whatever he wants but I will always suggest 8.
