Pretty much mine line of thought too.
I guess calling it a "budget"build is a bit misleading. I'm sure I could spend up to a grand and she'd be fine with that but want to keep cost under control and scale as necessary. I think I'll go with the best i5 processor I can and a good MOBO. Like you say, she can run off the integrated GPU until she actually needs a dedicated card.
