You said 1.2-1.4 AUD and this will perform a bit better and has higher quality parts. Along with an SSD and more RAM

No reason to buy last gen when Kabylake is actually cheaper.

 would recommend getting stuff from CPL, they are usually the cheapest, and hopefully there's a store near you so you can just pick up.

While also skimping on the PSU, Case and SSD? Switch them to ne's I choose so he has a quality PSU, SSD and case and then we'll be fine. The price will also be much closer.
