If you want budget but good, buy items from stores that sell refurbished computer parts (if you can build it yourself), which is going to be massively cheaper than buying a whole computer from a store brand new.

Or, you could look around for online stores that build custom spec from refurbished parts. My dad did that and got a decent one for about $150 (3.6Ghz processor, 4GB RAM, 90GB HDD), the graphics card isn't awesome, but with the budget you have you could triple that spec easily.

Just buy a Cyberpower PC , they don`t really put much of a service charge on and it actually sometimes turns out cheaper because they give free games and get exclusive offers on GPUs etc.

AMD CPU and a 7770...ehh Dunno, mine was around 800 dollars and I got a 7950 and a i5-2500K, so he should be able to get better hardware tbh

If you do want to build it yourself however, I suggest;
CPU: Intel i3/i5 - if your looking to overclock then make sure the model has a 'k' at the end.
Motherboard: MAKE SURE ITS COMPATIBLE WITH THE CPU - you will see something like "Z77" or "H64" and "Socket 1155" make sure it matches the CPU spec.
Graphics card: Preferably 2GB at least, Nvidia 560-90 should be fine.
Storage: A HDD will be fine, if it's for gaming make sure it has enough space (250GB+)
A good case: No need for a tower case, a normal one should be okay.
Memory: 4-8GB at least, memory is pretty cheap.
Power supply: Around 500 watts atleast for good lifetime - use this PSU calculator to see if it's enough - http://www.extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp

He does have a budget, so Nvidia isn't the best idea.

Nvidia are great but pricey, AMD are also great but a lot less pricey
Once they finish fixing their drivers then Nvidia have some even more serious competition.
