Looks pretty good apart from the power supply is a little low wattage go with a 600w like this.

Edit : Just a reminder about a disk drive in case you forgot

You didn't have a Dvd/disk drive on your list.

The psu is fine and it is a great brand.

Maybe go with a 7850 the benches prove it

That inwin case is really bad I would go with a zalman z9

Also you could go with a b75 to save money as your processor has a locked multiplier. B75 or h77

Get a barracuda hdd 1tb the model number ends in a 003. Or go with a 500gB to save money.

And go with a 15 pound DVD drive.

He doesnt need 600w at the most he will need is, 550w if he does not CF/SLI or get more demanding components.

I was just thinking in case he ever upgraded he would have to buy a higher wattage psu and it would save him money in the long run to buy a little extra now instead of a hole new psu in a year or so time.

But right now @Benchmarks he could suffice with a great 40 dollar psu that does the job it'll still do the job if he upgrades to a 7950 (though not reccommended) the highest I'd go is a 660 Ti
