Hi Tom,

As it is some graphics intense games can push the cpu and videocard to their limits so having a fast cpu and videocard to run the latest games is always a good idea. What kind of games does he want to run? If it's Quake III and games like it, I'd suggest a 700-800mhz cpu and a Geforce ddr or Geforce 2 graphics card. As for ram try to get 128mb at the least for most games, more ram and they run better. Feel free to ask more questions as you have them.
