Hello,

what is optimal configuraton with'Ge-force Gtx 260'

You are gonna have to specify what you want do you mean what is the best processor to match that card?

I think he wants for us to make a PC from parts for him that we think it will use the most of it and include the GTX260.

I think..). Also that means you can not afford expensive parts if you go for a gtx260.
So the best way would be to use an amd platform:


CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103808

Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131392 -i chose this one because it is a good board and you can overclock the life out of your CPU with it.

RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227478 -the bestr value at ram is at 1333MHz and these ones have a low latency and the voltage is ok too.

VIDEO: probably you already have the card but i will recommend one anyway(gtx260) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130433

PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139012 -this is ok but if you want to switch to 2 cards in the future (the motherboard only suppports crossfire so you will have to buy from ATi, anyway the gtx260 is a dead card) you need : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139011

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129058 -this is a good case.

HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136284 -a 1 Tb HDD should be ok.
For DVD you can buy an asus one or any other brand you like( i own asus for a few years now and it never failed).

A good CPu cooler for am3 i do not know so i hope others will recommend.

Well whatever they want they will have will have to put down a few sentences on their wants, needs, and budget.

Yep. does us no good to recommend parts without knowing what there going to use it for and there budget.

I wouldn't want to recommend two HD 5970 in cf and core i7 980x when there only going to use it for web browsing and only have $1k budget.
