Be careful though, they only boast a 300Watt PSU, so I would get that out of there asap for max computer performance. Would also like to not that there are no available standard PCI slots, only PCI-Express. I know it is a little over budget, but as I tell people, spend more now, spend less later...
As for the person who asked about laptops, ASUS makes great "buget" gaming laptops (which can be used for autodesk software). I tend to push people twords their laptops...er... notebooks. I would suggest something along the lines of:

I would not lean gateway for their laptops due to slightly dated cpus. I have problems with comfort on HP's, and ACER has caused me some problems in the past (I know, companies change, which is why I have people who shiver when I recommend Gateway, but I promise, they have changed) I cannot boast for Lenovo on anything due to my inexperience with them. Sorry.
