Instead of Asus M5A97 R2.0 he can go with Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3(rev 3.0) @ 5800. This is good MB at more OC than Asus.

Yup no over clocking is needed. The basic the better guys.

Guys I don't want monitor for office work will reuse the same as before. So if possible you can make the other components better with that money.
