Couple of years ago: we decided our son needed a new gaming computer. We bought all the components with the help of a friend who owns a computer repair shop. Our son built the computer with that same friend's assistance. The price was about the same as if we just bought the computer but the experience of building and trouble shooting issues was part of a learning experience.

I think planning and having your daughter help build her new computer is a great idea. Even if she never builds another one, she will understand what goes into it.

Good luck on narrowing down the components. So many options to choose from.
