I would go socket 939 (unless you are using parts from your existing system) & my personal PSU preference is Tagan 480W but it's your money...

Get Socket 939. Much better than 754 (can run memory in dual channel) and its more future proof. Get a Winchester 3200+ (Temps wont dissapoint you) and a S939 board. The ram is good. DVD Drives are fine. Hard drives fine, Cooler i suppose is ok although i'd prefer a Xp-120 to that. Case Is fine. Myself i'd rather get a Antec/Tagan power supply.

Doesnt look like he wants to spend to much, I think he'll be just fine but may need to change a few things around. keeping his cpu and graphics card will surely save him a lot of money, but if you want to spend money i suggest going to Socket 939 not that important to do really.

Are you building a whole new system? If your Tiny one sucks (which it probably does, it is Tiny after all)...then replace the crap parts. Much cheaper.
