I made 2 build because if you want to go with a higher resolution or add more monitors, its better to have a AMD card. Heres the AMD build:

If you're not planning on doing any higher resolution gaming or adding 1 or more monitors you should just use the Nvidia alternative:

I made a build for him. He won't be able to overclock it because finding the parts to overclock would be hard with this type of budget and he wouldn't see too much performance increases. If he would like to overclock, I would recommend just getting a i5 that can overclock and a 212 Evo as a later upgrade. Here you go:
