( i have a spare hyper evo 212 cpu cooler)

is it compatible with this mobo?

and atlast, what video card shall we put in it for gaming?
(everythign else looks fine to me)

he plays dayz and league of legends

my family member just got out of highschool he doesnt have a whole lot money to put into it, (im passing this old pc over to him)

Awesome old computer
Theres a user here whos likes using ones like this with a C2Q
Jus oc the cpu
Whats the most you can spend on a gpu? What's the psu?

I threw in a new corsair gs800 in there I'm sure it will be fine, I'm just unsure of the GPU selection, I think he would be comfortable spending about 200 bucks or so, I just don't want him to over due it and stress the old computer out

Hyper 212 Evo does fit on C2Q.

If you want an Nvidia card, I would say get a GTX 970, but its out of your price range ($340) =P

Even a 770 is about $260-290
