That would be probably be a little more involved then what is being looked for there. The mention of some gaming involved points at the more conventional approach since many games have to have a cd/dvd in the drive used. For a work horse type build with the extra memory used(4gb) over a the average 32bit desktop you don't have to go super elaborate but simply plan around the type of uses the system will see. You can see a good build with a single cpu do the work.

and oo update * its for himself not his brother, but for the same use but hes a programmer and is in graphics design, and wants to play future DX10 game so that why he wants the 9800s, hes building this computer also to help his brother out with oil excavation.

sorry if im being complicated, im just a messenger, with not much knowledge

You can build one that will work well in one or the other applications, not both.

Just tell him he can have a great gaming machine, but only a decent cad machine, or he can have it the other way around. But it will not do both great.

When it comes to running cad, you need to build a specific machine for that. Usually a work station class system.
