This will be much better, Updated CPU better PSU, Better Mobo Good Cooler. Doesn't include a hard drive but it has a 256gb reasoning being you can pick one up for 30-40 in half a month or so. This mono allows you to over clock if you don't want to over clock then this build you could save 150 or so and use that toward a 512gb ssd and a nice hard drive.
 
Since you apparently want to order from just newegg.

Solution
the challenger isnt a very big case and it cannot fit the massive WINDORCE. Team RAM is also not reccomended in a case that is >600. G1 PSUs are also something to avoid. G2s however offer amzing reliability and performance.

Extremely upgrade friendlly
 


this is for a friend of mine. I updated the list..thoughts?
 
Please don't listen to us when we are trying to help you. I really do not like when people on here ask for help and then they ignore it and all they want is for us to confirm their BS. THAT GRAPHICS CARD WILL NOT FIT. I said it before! Also don't get that PsU. It is God offel. Also there is no reason to get a mATX board
 
Chill out there slugger I didnt see your post. I updated to a larger case as well as a different psu, the same brand I have had for years, 500watt should be sufficient given there will be no overclocking right?
 


the list has been updated in the op
 


My build was a little less, and had better components.
