For gaming AMD is better, but you will need more RAM no matter which machine you get.. you should aim for at least 1gb.

For work Intel is better.. I personally run an intel 3.2ghz and it runs all games well so it really doesn't matter which you choose.

Odd's are you're getting an onboard graphics card = Really bad with games.

No problem for me. I don't play games anyways. He can just upgrade if he's looking for a Dell. (Their upgrades are usually cheap).

For the most part you won't notice any difference between those two processors. Yes there will be difference framerate wise but to the human eye you will not be able to notice it. 512mb will be more then fine for hl2 but a gig is always nice to have these days. The biggest thing imo is to drop the cash on one of the high end video cards.

You should get Athlon 64 939 system.
AMD is better for gaming.

Oh, and I think you should wait couple of weeks to get a nForce4 motherboard.

Check out these forums before you buy anything:

Dude, hl2 should be rocking on that PC. Check your drivers, DirectX (<Format?>)
