Everything seems very good. A coolermaster haf case or carbide case is good.
I would pay a bit extra like $50 for an amd 7950 gpu. With the newest drivers it beats the gtx 670 in alot of games and challenges the 680

He should just get the ivy bridge i5 3570k.... ($20 more)

and you don't need that 800w psu. get like a 650w. that'll be more than enough.

Dump that 660 Ti. The 7950 costs about the same($300) and performs better.

ssd for os like a 120 or 240 would make a huge diff.

or pay 10-20 more for the deluxe

Gaming?

Go with 8 GB of Ram (2x4GB)
Change CPU to Ivy 3570k
Change the pus to a 650 Watt (good brand choice)
Use the extra $$ to get a 128 GB ssd (for OS and maybe 1 game/app)
No Cooler? Hyper 212 would be a good add as well.

Nice build.
