You ought to give him a better GPU than that, at least a R7 270X 2GB. If you are going to pay $800 for a system at least purchase a mid-high end GPU.

The system build I provided would then be close to $750 without the OS. Which is a very good PC build for whatever you intend on using it for all the while being under your max budget.

Then with my build, take the OS out and change the R7 260x to a R9 270x
eg MSI $170 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
