Hey guys and gals,

I have a great 12 year old son. He is very interested in building a desktop gaming computer. He has been doing a ton oof research and I'm quite proud he has got it down to around 800 dollars. Not sure what that consists of butt he wants skyrim to run strong. We have a couple old desktops that he can start with one is a sony vaio the other is an Acer. I want to build him a bitchin desktop and use part's we have If possible. I can get some pictures part numbers whatever it takes he is good kid.

Thanks
