Heyo,
My friend is looking for a new gaming rig. He wants to spend around $800. Here is what we built for $916. He already has a monitor, which will run at 1280x720 (its a 720p tv), dvd drive, keyboard and mouse TBD.

Any suggestions for bringing down the price? He would like to stick to an i5 (we started at i7, but here we are...) I am sure I could talk him into an AMD if need be.
Thanks a bunch!
