If a small selection then an 4770 will easily handle everything. Ability to add a more beefy gpu down the road will benefit him in the long run.

That looks like a good spec sheet! Will be plenty fast for his needs and also run cool and mostly quiet 
Not a great fan of Acer products personally. I'd swap it back for the Asus in the OP. Integrated speakers tend to suck anyway (which is not what you want when you're remotely serious about editing).

From what I've heard, AOC monitors have pretty good colour reproduction but quite terrible response times. Seems alright for someone that wants to do editing, but if the budget allows for it, I'd prefer to go with a more 'premium' brand like Samsung, Dell or Asus.

Is that for all monitors or select few? I have seen plenty rated at less than 7ms.

I've seen a few reviews where they actually tested the response time of an AOC monitor that was rated at 5 ms (or something like that) and the test showed that the actual response time was somewhere around 22 ms.
I think this is one of those things where each manu has its own way of measuring...

Well then that is terrible. I'm glad i did not buy one of the 5ms response time monitors from them a few days ago
