Sorry, none of us actually know how to pick computer parts... If only there were a thread that somehow directed you to useful threads on the subject.

500 is a strict budget for being on high settings, especially since we don't know what will be required for it

That is a good build if you have access to a copy of Windows 7 to install on it, you will also need a case but I left that up to you on which to decide on.

If you don't have a copy of Windows 7, the build below (again, you'll have to choose your own case) will do pretty well, though not as well as the above build:

Building a computer is an experience; it's an event. Whenever I build one I have a blast shopping for parts and alternative setups. You're cheating yourself by asking people to do it for you.
