Building a professional system

My step dad asked me to help him build a computer for his business. Bit under one grand USD budget wise. Graphics horsepower isnt as big a deal since he dosent do gaming, but he does want a multi-monitor setup since he's a big multi-tasker.

 

Was thinking about going with either a Ryzen 5 1600 or 7 1700 since the 6 and 8 core intel equivalents are much pricier, some ECC memory if there's compatibility, and if theres room budget-wise, an SSD, though it isnt as big a deal. 

 

Figured Id check in here to see what parts you guys would recommend or if you know of any builds worth looking into.

yeah, Ryzen 1700 would be excellent.

what does he think about OC'ing? if he doesn't want to overclock, a 1700X would be a good investment, even though you'd still need a cooler.
