    I am not sure that MBO supports SLI, and if your friend will not be doing SLI he does not need a 650W PSU either, 500W will suffice. Also why not some cheaper case?

    Also I would really go with a 6850 or a 460 since its only about 10-15$ more than the 260

    Oh, ok

    As far as used computers go that looks like a good build. There are definitely some components that stand out as being reusable when the time comes for you to do a new build/upgrade.

    Will this system mainly be used for WoW or what?
