Hobo needs computer advice

Even though he is a Hobo, he's building a home computer.  Building his own customized Desktop with no desk to put it on.  He needs advice before he makes his big purchase.

Below is the description of the parts Hobo has selected for his new computer.  He asked me to post this so he could get some feedback.  He is also going to buy a monitor for around $100.  Do you have an suggestions, comments, input, ideas, etc????  If  so, post them in the comments.
