I'm doing a build for my friend who has a budge of about $800. I made this part list for him, and I need to know if everything will work out (if I mess up it will cost a lot). I'm just asking for any opinions, additions or tips. Thanks.

get a GTX 1050 its newer and its better performing. And on Newegg its $10 to $20 cheaper than what you have in your list. Also dont forget windows, you can get it for around $25 from kinguin or g2a.

why do you buy a K cpu if you later buy a non Z mobo? also 950 is outdated for these days, better get something like this:

better psu and graphics card, also the cpu performance at stock one is almost the same against 6600k. And with this build is to play AAA titles so if he is only gonna play csgo, its just a waste of money imo if its gonna be only get used to play csgo

Remember to quote me (or someone else), otherwise we won't going to recieve your answers...
