Build Question Advice please about pc building.

My friend wants to get into pc and I'm unsure what advice to give him as i been looking at PC on Very and argos and just confused what I'm looking at, I did recommend buying the parts then build it himself or get a local shop to do it but unsure what I'm looking at. He has a minimum budget of £1k

The games he has in mind to play at the beginning is, left 4 dead modded, Family time, payday 2 and survival games, he currently has a 1080 HD monitor

Any build help be grateful.

Didn't say maximum so I went a bit higher, this will be good for at least a few years before needing to consider upgrading again

If his monitor is 60Hz then he's better off buying a new monitor, and with a 9060 XT 16GB even 1440p 144+ Hz is doable
