Our church needs a new PC to run Pro Presenter 5. The recommended specs are here

Our AV tech suggests a better machine to utilize this software:
1. Quad Core CPU, faster the better, i5 or i 7 recommended
2. 250GB SSD for primary drive
3. 1 TB standard hard drive for storage
4. 1 GB at least quality video card
5. ATX form factor mainboard and case. (I like the Corsair 200R)
6, Windows 7 Pro OEM

Any suggestions/upgrades on the following build? Total budget with OS is $1,300
