Making a PC spec for a friend, thier use will be gaming and general use. No overclocking, no super demanding 3D programs. They will be playing the latest games though and want it to last a long time. I wasn't given a budget as such but the price does matter.

This is what I came up with:

Any suggestions to change anything?
 
Thanks for the replies.

Didn't notice that RAM, good shout. Wasn't sure about the MB, changed it to the MSI one. Changed the HDD and PSU as suggested too.

About the case, I personally think it's worth getting a good case even if not overclocking as they are so much nicer to work with, but I just picked one that caught my eye at around £100. I'm going to reccomend that they do some research on cases and pick one they like.

About the CPU, since they won't be overclocking, will it even be worth getting the 2500k instead for the price? Will it perform any better with both at stock?

edit: and about sound card, yeah in my opinion they should get one it makes a noticable difference to me.

Also I forgot the OS before, added that too and updated spec:
