all good (compatible) except you hdd is a little small.

Depends what he uses it for! If its for a few games + just general work it will be fine, if you have loads of games or do downloading / record tv then its definetly a nono....If you do use the drive for recording ect I would reccomend a 250 - 300Gb+

 

[Motoxrdude]

YEa your good to go. Again, your hdd is pretty small.

Ok about the Hard drive im also going to put in an older IDE drive thats like 17 or 18 GB. so i will have like 100Gb. Also i can always get a larger hd to add on later so i wanted to concetrate on making the computer really fast with the money im spending now. oh yea also my computer im now has about 80 gb and its not ful and my whole familiy uses it so i think i will be good for a while with 80. im not loading a ton of games maybe like 5 big ones or something like that. but thanks for the comment.
