[Angryjellyblob1]

So my friend has $600 and want a new computer. Can someone go on pcpartpicker and make him one? I ask because I am known for being awful at that kind of stuff. he wants to play Dark souls at medium-High graphics, but unfortunately his current computer is awful. Please help. he already has monitors.

The RX 480 is coming out on the 29th.
