Gaming Rig Recommendation

[whitewartexx]

Hi all.
Can all the experts here recommend a decent gaming rig for my friend that's definitely worth the money? Budget is arnd $800 can +- abit. For all types of games. Although mainly online games such as LoL.

Thanks alot!

EDIT: Wow thanks for the quick replies! OS: preferably windows 7
Monitor+mouse+everything else no need. Only CPU.
I don't think my friend knows how to DIY. He'll probably be buying from a shop like PC Themes which would help him to assemble.

$800 for all type of game is impossible, i think you write down what type of game your friend is playing .

I don't think he can DIY. Any chance could get it from another shop that helps him DIY like PC Themes? Plus*the budget is approximate. Can go up to $850 or even $900. Best is the rig can withstand for 2-3 years.
