My friend asked my to put a list of parts together for a gaming PC. His price range is around 1k. He wants to be able to play most if not all games without an issue, as well as have support for anything else he would need to do productivity wise (ie. video editing, and other minimal software use). I was going to build him an Intel and nvidia based build because that is what I am familiar with. If anyone has some other advice or a build that would be great. BTW he has nothing so it is a full build.

So they're in need of peripherals?

Just building them a PC, they can get those on their own.
