get an AMD APU instead of the i5 doesn't look like he will need that much cpu power and the integrated on the APU is better then the Intel no reason to spend 100$ more on something unnecessary

What do you mean there is no budget since it is diy? Your preferences are the better options.

For a cheap budget case you can look at the nzxt source 210, nzxt s340, bitfenix shinobi, and my favourite budget case, the bitfenix shadow.

The prices may differ so putting a number wont help much. Thats why I listed the parts I found that the cheapest.

My preferences is products from companys that I use myself or reccomended somewhere else, If the cheaper options still ok or there is other options cheaper than my pref' than I will use it.
