Is this rig OK?

Hi,
I'm building this rig for a friend and wanted to check I hadn't missed anything as the price seemed a bit cheap. Have I missed anything? Also, are there any components you would change?

NB: I already have an 8800gt for him, which is why there isn't a GPU listed.
EDIT: Sorry!

you could save some on RAM and Power Supply if your ok with MIR:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...Size=10&page=1
Get the deal with the 2gb of RAM and power supply (comes with $45 MIR)
then get another 2gb of Ram and you total will be $62 after MIR.

And that comes with a 600w modular power supply and 4gb of RAM.
it has two 12v rails with 25a on each so its pretty decent.
Do you already have an OS sitting around for him somewhere? If not then you need to grab one. I'd say go for Vista on that build, as it's good enough to run it smoothly.
i don't thing g31 supports that processor, look for a good quality p35 board. maybe biostar or asus.
