I build a PC for a friend too. I got these parts for 1000 Euro = 1.100 USD

Graphics card: ASUS DUAL-GTX1660S-O6G-EVO- 6GB GDDR6

CPU: Intel Core i5 11400F

CPU cooler: 120mm Alpenföhn EKL Dolomit Advanced

Mainboard: Gigabyte B560M Aorus Elite 1.0 mATX

RAM: 2x 8GB Crucial Ballistix RGB

SSD: 1TB Crucial P2
Power supply: Corsair RM750 (2021)

Case: Phanteks Eclipse P300A Mesh

Case fans: 3x Alpenföhn "Wing Boost 3" 120x120x25

The difference is:
more money for a better graphics card,

less money for a K-series CPU, you can't overclock anyway with your very cheap mainboard,

more money on motherboard features,

SSD, no HDD so the storage will be less but silent and fast.

My build:

CPU

Intel Core i7 9700 8x 3.00GHz So.1151

 

CPU cooler

be quiet! Shadow Rock Slim
