P4 huh? I can already say that upgrading this computer won't be worth it, seeing as how you probably have AGP slots not PCI-E slots.

He have 1 pci-e x16 slot.

I recommended a 9400GT/9500GT for him ,

Any good in your opinion tasty?

the 9400GT and 9500GT are decent mainstream cards. it would definitely be a step up from what he used to have. I'm slightly concerned about his stock power supply.

I'd suggest he get the low-profile 4650, seeing as it takes less power, produces less heat and is smaller in size. I also prefer ATI over Nvidia.

also can do a combo buy on a graphics card and psu and end up getting a new psu for ~20 bucks

Get an Intel Integrated Card, it runs crysis like smooth butter.

Get something in the 4000 series. You can get a mid grade 4000 series card that will run circles around the price equal on the nvidia side. If you're on a budget go ati, drivers have been more stable the last year on the ati side as well for me at least.
