Is this PC for gaming? is he going to overclock? any specific color scheme?

It would be for pc gaming, possibly overclocking, and no specific color scheme.

Ok then Roberts build would offer the most bang for buck and will look great besides the cooler. Brown and Beige? Yuck. You can get a H100i from Corsair for only $10 more. It would look so much better or you could just replace the fans on the NH-D15 with black or white fans which would cost the same as just buying the H100i. It's your friend's choice on what looks better
