The case comes with a free 650W PSU. You wont need the Corsair PSU.

Seems like a brilliant build though, bit too much for a budget computer.

I think it's a bit overkill if it's just for web browsing and office stuff. What are they going to be using it for?

You could get a Coolermaster 534 for less money, and a few other Coolermasters.

You could get G.skill RAM, with heatspreaders for the same price.

I'm the budgeter of the bunch, it seems.

I think it's pretty damn good then. Will last you quite a while as well since you are opting for AM3 and DDR3.

Thanks for the feedback so far guys..

The case was the one they liked as they dont like lights and stuff. The ram I refuse to use GSkill as every set i've owned have been rma'd, and the crazy combo deal is what I got.
