Leaves you $140 to pick a nice case (too many options and too personal to just pick one) and maybe add a little extra RGB bling for him. PSU has some headroom to add a real GPU down the line.

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

I'm basically never going to put a case in a build list for someone because aesthetics are too subjective and there are plenty of good choices, better to just leave room in the budget for something good and say pick it yourself.

5600G has integrated graphics that are adequate if he's only going to play Siege and Valorant at 1080P. No GPU worth buying will fit into your budget right now. Add a GPU later when prices come down.
