My friend wants to build a computer for under 500$, it can be prebuilt or I can build it for him (I built mine, so it shouldn't be too hard).

It should be able to run games on the source engine smoothly ( The only game he even plays on the 360 is tf2 ).

Thanks for the help (or the bump, in case you weren't helpful lol)

Smooth is like 60 fps, he doesn't have to be at like 16x antialiasing either. It will probably be a 1024 x 768 monitor as well.

You can build a GREAT PC for $600-ish. You can build a mid-range PC for around $500.

The proof is right in front of you! So it isn't that hard to believe... My computer was 1k dollars, and it failed until I replaced the parts... xD!!
