He might want to mention specifically the games he intends to get this PC for, too. but, the best thing I can offer is an I7 7700k, and a GTX 1080 Ti FTW 3, by EVGA. He can use super sampling to have the issues you normally have by playing games in 1080p on such a powerful card.
I honestly feel like he should go back to Xbox One, or wait for Scorpio, after reading the post over a few more times. It doesn't seem logical to get a PC for high tier gaming, when the PC that you need for that will cost several grand. He's not going to be satisfied. Probably wont see a difference between the xbox and PC. Wont be happy with it in the end.
And, the PC the OP listed seems to be worth about 500 bucks. Personally, I wouldn't pay more than 400 for it, however my PC is so far ahead of the average gamer that I wouldn't consider anything with specs like that. Most people can't afford it. I guess you can say I'm out of touch, because having something like that, I would lose my mind.
