Choosing strictly between the 2 you have listed the 2nd hands down. A discrete GPU is always better and you can easily get a better CPU down the road. I am also assuming that the Team V ram hit is 2 dimms for dual channel???

Second build is surely more powerful....

Build 1 and save up for a discrete GPU.

 

Also, don't get a 500 gb hard drive, 1 tb ones are only marginally more expensive.

 

Although is this a strictly gaming build?
What games will you be wanting to play outright?

Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.9 Ghz  | Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 |  PaliT GTX 1050Ti  |  8gb Kingston HyperX Fury @ 2933 Mhz  |  Corsair CX550m  |  1 TB WD Blue HDD


Inside some old case I found lying around.

I'd go with @SHROUD’s suggestion.

You make it cheaper by skipping the SSD and using some random case. The gaming experience will be 100x better with an RX570 than the igpu and it'll hold up for at least another 2 years.

 

Speaking of RX570's, holy shit I didn't notice how cheap they are now. Same price as a 1050Ti and a lot more horsepower.

Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.9 Ghz  | Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3 |  PaliT GTX 1050Ti  |  8gb Kingston HyperX Fury @ 2933 Mhz  |  Corsair CX550m  |  1 TB WD Blue HDD

Wrong country. There is a PCPP UK for UK builds. That one ends up at £690.

Just suggested him to build something similar. I didn't gave him any estimated cost. It'll cost just a tad bit more but will perform way better.

No. Quite a lot of things I would change.
