by buddy has a Gateway GT5058. He updated the Graphics card about a year ago (don't know the model but a year ago it was $250) he would like more power for gaming.
I was hoping to get some thought about weather to upgrade his farther CPU, GPU, and RAM
or
basically build new and carry over his HDD and Optical Drives.
specs on his current computer:

would his current PSU even run a new graphics card and cpu?
what is the best cpu that will fit in that mobo?
is his current case safe for the heat that the new equipment would make?
not sure on his budget yet, what will get the most bang for the buck.
