Yeah, that stuff meets under budget, but he doesn't need to spend more on a video card than the HD 4670, he's not going to be doing any heavy graphics stuff in the first place. Also, the 9300 is good, but about 100 bucks more than the 6600, which is still a good processor for what he's using it for, and 100 bucks is 100 bucks.
I definitely don't agree with your RAM choice... DDR2 900 for that cost? The Kingston HyperX I suggested is only 2 bucks more, and it's 1066 with good CAS.
The case, PSU, and HDD you picked out are good though. More power is always nice, and I've heard good things about the 640gb WD, even though the Seagate is a bit cheaper. Kudos to those.
