A GTX 580 for a resolution amounting to 1280 x 1024 is waaaayyyyy overkill.. You may safely go for a GTS 450 instead.. Or else, upgrade to a bigger monitor..

First of all, with that resolution, the 580 is way overkill. I hope your friend knows that.

Second, is the GTX 580 and case included in the budget listed? If so amend the budget so we know what we have left to work with since we don' t know exactly how much you paid for them. Also, is that budget in US Dollars?

I would recommend grabbing the new i5-2500k in a couple of days. that will be around $220 US

P67 motherboard for around $150


8GB Ram ~ $100

PSU, 750 - 850W from Corsair, Antec, or Seasonic ~$110-150

HDD 1TB from Western digital, Seagate, Samsung ~$65

Use what is left in the budget to grab a 23-24" 1080p monitor ~ $170-200
That way he can actually use the card he wants.

Can you give links to some sites in there with parts? And the budget in р. In this budget $850-950 a 580 doesn't fit.

Im thinking of gettin everything from newegg.com becausei've heard a lot of good things about them.

 

[jedi940]

Except newegg doesn't ship overseas.

Some sites like those (found them by googling "цена Процессоры":

http://www.nix.ru/autocatalog/amd/CPU_AMD_Phenom_X4_955_BOX_Black_Edition_HDZ955F_4000_Socket_AM3_75928.html

This looks like a site with prices

Or you build his PC in USA and send it in there?

 

[Milkman_902]

Buildin it here then sending there..But some of those sites would be good for him in the future if he ever wanted to upgrade thanks =)

The CPU is slightly faster in gaming, I don't know anything about that mobo.
