Just looking at the above build, I can make out that it for 1080p 144hz gaming. If that's not the case, fill us up like lutfij said.
The parts that need changing :

Cpu 7700k
Cooler it a poor choice for the hot running i7. Get the Scythe Mugen 5
Ram: there is a trident z rgb for the same price
Psu : not a good one. Get a txm 550
Great monitor.

So something like this :

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor ($323.53 @ OutletPC)
CPU Cooler: Scythe - Mugen 5 51.2 CFM CPU Cooler ($46.88 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: MSI - Z270 GAMING PRO CARBON ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($166.88 @ OutletPC)
Memory:...

We don't know your friend's budget, usage scenario and ofc when the system will be built. Essentially all the info that is related in the first post of this thread.

Please post a follow up with the necessary information and I'm sure we can build a refined system. I'm also seeing that you could get away with a Ryzen build provided the usage scenario is right. You also missed out on inlcuding an SSD for that price point.
