Also, why the full-size ATX motherboard and tombstone of a case? Do they need loads of expansion slots? If not, and given what you've said so far, I'd go for a small form factor mITX/NUC bare-bones kit, with an AMD Ryzen G-series CPU with decent integrated graphics and 2x 4TB NVMe SSDs. Nice, compact, quiet, cool, no unnecessary cruft.
the GPU he's picked is objectively much worse than the one that's built into the CPU though

(unless he doesn't know there's integrated graphics and just thought he had to buy something, so bought the cheapest, shittiest thing he could find?)
