Other details
I'm helping a friend with a build. Looks are very important to him, he would like to build an all white PC.
Hardware already owned:
GTX 780, although he does not know if it still works (his old pc died, causes unknown)
Since nvidia does not support these graphics cards anymore, I guess it's just a matter of time until he will run into issues with this card.
Therefore I am wondering if it's just better to buy a good CPU with integrated graphics?
I am not sure whether the Ryzen 5 5600G is enough to handle most games and workload, or if the Ryzen 7 5700G is a better choice?

Here is the PC-Part Picker list. It's stil a work in progress.
I am aware that the motherboard ist horribly overpriced, but as I said, asthetics are important to him. However I am thinking about replacing it with a MSi MPG B550 Gaming Edge Wifi (151€).
If you have a better recommendation, please let me know :)
I also haven't added a PSU yet, but I'm thinking 600-650W will be enough and allow him to upgrade his GPU in following years.
A comment on the case: I added a Corsair 4000D Airflow to the list, however he suggested the NZXT H510 Flow. Couldn't find it on PC Part Picker and I also think the Corsair case is a better chice looking at price and cooling performance.

There is a small FPS difference between the R5 5600G and the R7 5700G. If he wants the 2 extra cores for productivity, I would say go for it. These two CPU's can handle most games 1080p low-medium settings 45+ fps.

I like the motherboard choice lol. 650W will probably be enough for him unless he gets his lucky hands on a 3080 or better.

The two case choices are great; the NZXT is $25-$30 more expensive than the 4000D; i would go for the Corsair case.

 

Just a note. Switching the motherboard to the MSi MPG B550 Gaming Edge Wifi wouldn't decrease your performance, and the contrast would look good with all the white parts. Maybe some white cables also?
