Q6600
IP35 Pro Mobo
2X1gb Corsair Ram
620 watts SMPS
CM 330 Cabinet
8800GT gigabyte GPU
Logitech mouse and keyboard
19" Samsung monitor

I think that will make the main components

Core2Quad Q9450 (simply because of 1333 MHz FSB and 12 MB L2 Cache)
4 GB DDR2 800 MHz RAM
Gigabyte P35-DS3RC Board (Reason : DDR2 and DDR3 support)
Antec Trio 650W SMPS (keeping upgrade in mind)
Cooler Master CM-690 Cabinet (Awesome Cabinet - I own it too)
24" Dell E248WFP Monitor for full HD support
USB Mouse and Keyboard

I think it will. He can go for a double 8800 under SLI, and of course a 750GB drive, and optical drives are cheap.

^^ i dont know technical difference but benchmarks proof that 8800 is better than 9600 and that 9600 supports DX10.1

well defiantely u can,.... but remember with 8800GT u cannot play all games in high resolution ... for that u can go for ATI 3870X2 or 8800GTS but then it will double the cost of GPU
