Now I could do this myself but I know many of you are much better at this than me. So I'll let you take it.

Build A 650 dollar budget (can go up to 700 if required)

Needs Windows 7 and tower.

Purpose: Gaming


Build b 650 dollar budget (can go up to 700 if required)

Just Tower

Purpose: Gaming


Should I make two separate threads or just leave it like it is?
 
CPU: Intel Core i3-2120 3.3GHz Dual-Core Processor ($109.99 @ NCIX US)
Motherboard: ASRock H77M Micro ATX LGA1155 Motherboard ($69.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($44.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($49.99 @ NCIX US)
Video Card: Asus Radeon HD 7850 2GB Video Card ($177.99 @ Newegg)
Case: Corsair 300R ATX Mid Tower Case ($74.99 @ Newegg)
Optical Drive: Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer ($15.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (64-bit) ($90.36 @ Amazon)

This comes to around $635.

I didn't pick a monitor, keyboard or mouse for him because I didn't really want to pick a style of monitor that he doesn't like. Also, any keyboard or mouse will do at this time. If he wants a good mechanical keyboard, it's going to be going over the budget by quite a bit.
Right now I think a normal keyboard and mouse would do just fine.

He might need to spend another $20 more than his budget, but I'm pretty sure he can spare that for this system.

That build doesn't have a PSU. I'd recommend a Corsair CX500 or an Antec Neo 520 or an OCZ ZS 550W for a build like that.
