Yea, building a tower desktop is the way to go. Put in a good video card, and lots of memory. It will be easy to expand in the future if she needs more hard drive space. Hard drives always fill up. And she will be able to easily replace a component in the future. Don't forget to get some extra fans, and you can set them up to only crank up speed when the system is hot.

I have one computer that I built about 10 years ago as a home email and cheap computer that went through several upgrades, and new motherboards, and now that same case has 6 hard drives in it, and a is mostly a 36 TB raid 5 and not used for much else. Just a big storage space.
