I was asked by a friend to build him a gaming PC for around $500. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] is what I came up with real quick. Help? Suggestions? Any advice would be nice.
Thank you!

The build is nice, but I would go for this. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Is a little bit more balanced.

Hey,

I would really like to see you up the budget by atleast $200-$300 because then you can get some kick ass hardware installed and have something that lasts atleast a year rather than a few months.

Just my opinion. $500 can get you something decent, but not great.

It's a friend's budget, not mine. He is planning on upgrading soon though.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Here. This is a very good build for the price. He should be able to manage high on all current games. Which is good for a 500$ budget. I made sure not to get any sketchy parts. And all are at least 4 stars with multiple ratings
