I'm building a $400 PC for a friend, and need some advice. He wants as much raw performance he can squeeze into the build. Here are my parts so far:
CPU:G4560
MOBO:???
RAM: 8gb
Case: ???
PSU: EVGA 600 watt non modular
GPU: ???
I'm thinking of going used, and here are the parts I'm considering:
GTX 770
R9 280/X
R9 380/X
HD 7970
GTX 670
Which of these will be best bang for buck in you guys opinions? He plays lots of different types of games, and he wants at least medium at 1080p 60fps. Thanks!!

Can be greatly improved.
Get this RAM ASAP, i've also included it in the list below, some absurd deal from OutletPC, who're generally pretty reliable.

No need to buy used, fantastic deal on a 1060 3GB atm.
