im building just a regular work PC for my uncle

gpu- integrated 3200
mb- GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-US2H (Micro ATX) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128379
os- xp pro x64
hd- WD 640 GB black
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136319
-->74.99, free shipping
ram- 2gig (2X1) ddr2 800
case/psu- Linkworld 43706-228FU+P04 with 430 watt power supply
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811164118
ill get some some type of cheap dvd drive and modem (he has dial up)
all its going to be doing is MS office, internet, photos, and some lite video editing.
price must stay under 450, its at ~440 right now but thats with the 640 gig black edition hard drive
i want to go with a 320 gig or 250 gig HD because that would be more than enough but i wanted the speed of the WD 640 black, any fast cheap 320 gigs out there? by fast i mean faster than a regular old 7200 16 MB cache one
i want to go with the 7750 but the 5050e is so much more efficient that i might go with it
motherboard suggestions would be great, i have yet to really dig into micro atx mobos
and no thanks, f*** vista i dont care if i save 300 bucks
thanks
