1080p Gaming Build - Suggestions? (Skylake and Pascal Architecture)

I'm planning out a PC build for a friend of mine. I wanted to make sure, though, that everything looks good and that there are no bottlenecks and that nothing looks poor.

Extra Info: I won't be buying all the parts at once. We'll be buying the parts over time so if you have any suggestions on where I should save out, just tell me.
Also, my friend is coming over from the PS4 so he's expecting a significant performance improvements for a suitable price (not much over $900).

Here is the Build:

The build looks good. Graphic wise it should look quite a bit nicer and mods (depending on game) can make games look and perform much better so it should be a noticeable difference from the PS4. You can always wait on the SSD as it only improves loading times on some games.

Made a change to the MB & GPU to save a bit of cash.

I see what you mean. It isn't essential.
HDDs can last years, but in case, would there be a way to transfer an OS from an HDD to an SSD after I purchase the SSD?

Samsung SSD's do have magician software to transfer the OS but unfortunately Sandisk doesn't really have there own software to transfer. They recommend a 3rd party software which I can't recall the name of it but when I tried it on a friends system it didn't work the way it was supposed to (maybe user error?) and I ended up just doing a clean install.

The exact issue I had was I got the HDD down to 180gb then when I transferred to the SSD (same one you picked) it used all 240gb, I couldn't figure out what went wrong so I just did the clean install. The SSD though is decent and the speeds are good.

My friend had a Windows 7 retail key/disk. I've used my own key (also a retail key) multiple times for the same system (motherboard changes) without any issues. If you do run into the issue of a duplicate key (or MS thinking its invalid) I'm nearly 100% positive there's a verification system that you call and they give you automated instructions how to clarify it.
 


I appreciate all the help, mate!
