EDIT: Max, butget 800$. but if you find something better and lower price is okay. like 500$? he wants to play any game at 1080p@60FPS, also something not to big and not to small like a PS4

Get a pentium G3258 and z87 or z97 board, you can overclock it.

Do this build if your budget is roughly $500, ALSO tell your friend to wait about a week or two and get the RX 480 which should be about as powerful as a R9 390 / 390x.
