You shouldnt take any technical related advice from that friend.
Those two components will work fine together.

Now, for the sake of curiosity, ask him why its going to "melt" the cpu, I really really want to hear what excuse he has.

I have a G4560 with a low profile MSI 1050 TI 4GB in a HTPC, no melting here. You could even run a 1060 6GB if you have room and a 6 pin power cable. Though there will be a few FPS to be unlocked with a true quad core cpu.

MSI B250M will not be compatible with the 8th gen processors, only 6th or 7th gen

As I said before though, g4560 is essentially an I3-6100 with a few features removed that does not impact gaming. Does will with a 1050TI and you can get good performance with a 1060 6GB but will leave some potential frames per second underutilized.

I5 6500 or I5 7400 is good for true quad cores in a b250 to get the most out of a 1060 6GB.

If you plan to get 1070 or 1080 then those want an I7 6700 or I7 7700.
