Looks like a very good build to me.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

Why you shouldn't trust Gpu or Cpu boss Click on this I dare you!

I really wouldn't suggest RAID0'ing those hard drives. They weren't really made for that, and unless he has a NAS, or other form of back-up device, he could find himself screwed if he would have important data on the device. RAID is not something that you'll need for this computer.
