Hello everyone, I am building a computer for an assoiciate who wants a nice system. I have already got a good deal on a cooler cosmos 1000 case w/ side window. I have been looking for good deals without breaking the bank. The lady I'm making this build for is not a gamer but she wants to be able to game if she decides to do so. Ive come up with this list of components from newegg and the discounts seem pretty good. I think this may be a bit more power than needed for this person. I am open to suggestions and would greatly apprieciate any and all advice. Thanks for your help.

Can anyone do better for less money? Thanks again for helping
