The motherboard is a little weird, and I'm not too sure about the power supply either. He intends to overclock.

His budget is about 400 US for everything but the monitor and hard drive.
Prices are in Australian dollars.

Intel Pentium D 820 2.80MHz LGA775.....................................138
2x Kingston 512MB PC4200 533MHz........................................154
Generic ATX Mid-Tower Case without PSU..................................27
EZCool 500w True Power..........................................................35
Asrock 775Dual-VSTA (AGP/PCI-e/DDR2/DDR/Raid/8CH)...........77
PCI-e (nV) Sparkle 6600GT 128MB............................................99

The US total after conversion is $412.
