Hey everyone, my friend is wanting to get a gaming PC here soon and he showed me all the parts he's going to buy, but he's not too sure if everything will work right together and be compatible with each other. Plus I wasn't too sure either so I decided to see what you all would say. But anyways, will all these parts be good for a PC build, and if not what should he change? Also he said he's not going to pay anymore than 2000$ if one of you recommend he should upgrade more.

He doesn't want to pay anymore than 2000$ and he lives in the U.S. Also if you think he should upgrade anything else to make the PC more powerful and play games better, just let me know.
