https://www.letsbld.com/ is a great place to start. Its done by NZXT and has near MSRP prices for most items. I feel their price is very good for what you get.

I wouldnt ram and gpu cost way to much right now. He would get more bang for the buck with that option although I wouldn't recommend that prebuild either.

As for right now this prebuilt trumps those offering by a lot. This prebuilt is 100$ cheaper and have a GTX 1070 and a 240 ssd.

even then $1600 for that is too high.
