All looks very fair to me. And that system wouldn't suffer to badly either with gaming. The 8600 isn't all that bad. Runs most new games quite smoothly on normal specs.
Go for it.

Spend another £1000 or she'll think you think she's cheap! Or do what I'd do, spend the money on myself

looks a ok pc for shite ill shag her for 1/2 the price on a regular basis and she`ll have far more fun. dont tell all her friends though this is only cause your gchq - they have to pay full price its more than enough and if you shop around on dell deal of the day with niceys bargan codes you might get it for 300 mate
