The guy is low key bragging, but it's somewhat in that ballpark. A 1070 can be found for 300, i7700k for 300 (even cheaper at in store deals or with a motherboard deal), and a case/psu/ram would be under 200-ish. Then you need an SSD. I say the estimate would be around 800-1k to build your pc, but that requires time, effort, and a little luck. 1.4k isn't bad for a pre build.
