I went for an APU build to save you money, you said that the PC will be used for just light everyday work so I felt you didn't need to spend a ton of money on things that will only benefit you in applications you won't be using, 4GB of DDR3 RAM is enough for web-browsing and light gaming (games like minecraft and CS:GO). I got an SSD to save those pesky boot times. 1TB is a bit overkill considering what this PC is being used for, but it has the best price-to-performance.
