If you money to spend, stick to the i5 and get a decent PSU too. Change the 760 for a 290x or a 970

Hmm well that depends on what you wanna do with it. The first one is oké, a bit outdated but nothing really terrible.
About the one for your GF well again depends on what you wanna do with it and what your budget is.

Tho what you might do is give your old pc to your gf and build a better one yourself :p
but then again i dont know what you/she want to do with it.

Possible but don't expect something good at all.
Better search for a second hand then.
