If he's upgrading in two years, might as well get a new CPU too. Here's a really basic build:

 

He could spend a little more on a nicer case, since this comes below the budget, and when he upgrades he can snag an 8 cores Ryzen CPU off eBay, maybe a GTX 1760 when those come out?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad
