If they don't game, they still need no graphic card at all. Intergrated will go long way with stuff you described. In fact, I just built a computer for my mum which was also a sort of multimedia pc .. Went with i3-2100, H61M motherboard, 8GB memory and XFX 450W PSU. 8GB because well, it's dirt cheap so .. why not?
I would suggest same if not similar setup for you. If you insist on getting i5 (which you really won't need), at least drop the graphic card out completely. With that money, get a 64GB SSD. for Windows and programs. That SSD will really go long way when you look at the overall performance even for normal usage w/ no gaming.
