You can easily protect her and she will slow and stun them down for you, proccing Approach Velocity and setting nicely your abilities. She literally spoon-feds you. Marry a main if possible.

Tank CoreJak'Sho, The Protean Sunfire Aegis |
The first step and key aspect to improve your itemization as Cho'Gath is to understand his role; by understanding it you discern his stat needs.
A hybrid between Tank, Mage and Assassin; Cho'Gath is an immobile, gigantic, CC-ridden, infinite scaling, Meatshield of a champion:
Like a TANK, Cho'Gath loves Armor, Magic Resistance, Tenacity, Slow Resistance, and above all, Health Points. These stats not only allows him to soak the enemy team’s damage and CC; the more bonus health you have, the higher your R’s true damage execution will be.
Like a MAGE, Cho'Gath loves Mana and Ability Haste, which allow him to spam his abilities to disrupt the enemy team. Despite his high ratios, big amounts of Ability Power are not as valuable on Cho, as his abilities are difficult to hit and their base damage are already high enough for R’s execution.
Core Items
It gives you Ability Power, ability haste and mana for spellcasting.
Sweet sweet magic penetration. Sorcerer's shoes will increase your damage drastically from the get-go.
Demonic Embrace is the AP-Bruiser equivalent of Liandry’s Anguish. Despite sharing the % max-health magic burn, its main purpose is increasing both our survivability and damage through raw HP and AP. The most important aspect of the item tho is its Bonus HP to AP conversion passive. MASSIVE item for a lategame Cho'Gath.
The ultimate ability power item for a scaling champion.
Best Keystone. Hail of Blades' compensates for your lack of attack speed, helping you shove your 3 Vorpal Spikes-empowered autos quickly enough to assassinate whatever you put your claw on. (specially with AP-Muramana)
The only good rune of the row. The little bit of true damage will help you assassinate your target and Cho'Gath has plenty of CC to procc it.
Eyeball collection is kind of a filler rune: You have plenity of kill potential early to stack it on ganks thanks to your CC, and the AP early feels good. It can be swapped in higher elos for zombie ward (people are prone to not ward in low elo) as vision is a very important factor as a jungler.
Ultimate hunter is by far the best one. Your entire champion identity revolves around your R: The lower its cooldown the faster you will scale. Thanks to it you will become tankier earlier + also providing kill pressure more often.
Attack-speed helps you clear and synergizes with Hail of Blades, E, and Muramana (if you build it). Ability power to improve all your spells. Scaling Heath to increase your R execute threshold.
