modified my build with a 212evo.. as long as he doesnt overclock too much or at all it should be okay.. also changed mechanical to a larger ssd, removed the 1050ti and added a 1060, downsized the psu from 650-450.

the 212evo is also currently a combo deal on newegg paired with the 1600x but costs a few dollars more than seperately purchaced through amazon/newegg
