what could i improve on this budget

[rn8686]

I dont see anything that I would change. 

[Herman Mcpootis]

could go for a cheaper mobo(its at the same price range of a z170), get an rx 480, gtx 1060 or rx 470 4gb(the 8gb model makes no sense), drop to a cheaper monitor and get a better power supply.

that monitor doesn't look like a good value at all, tell him he can get better monitors for the same price or less.

cheapest atx mobo with ddr4 will be h170a-x1 for around $77. you don't need an ATX motherboard, an m-atx mobo will fit in the case and work just as well.
