too expensive PSU for that build
bad cooling solution for the CPU
you could get a Xeon E3-1231v3 + a H97 motherboard and skip the cooler or get the 212 Evo to save money and you'd end up with a more powerful CPU for less.

[AresKrieger]

Why is your psu $150, you can get the same or better quality for cheaper

A evga 650W G2 is 89.99 right now, and 69.99 if you want to use a rebate (one of the best psus on the market)

[Aytex]

really depends you can get a 4460 and a r9 390 for more preformance

[DarkBlade2117]

6.5 - should have gone z170

No point for the price difference, may be out of his budget.

You completely threw off his color scheme... For example, Say I was building this, it would take me 3 weeks to get that $30

This, is what he should shoot for. Offers a better power supply that allows for later crossfire, a CPU cooler better then that "212 Evo" and a GPU that will be way more benficial to him then skylake. Betime he ACTUALLY has to get a new CPU a new socket will be out anyways.

4/10

sacrificed performance for the sake of looks

Can grab a cheaper cooler

Get a bigger SSD, Samsung isn't only one out there

PSU is way overpriced

 

Skylake with 16GB of ram and R9-390. Going to 8GB will bring down the total cost.
