    Any outdoor-rated, shielded and insulated ethernet cable (Cat5e or better) will do fine. I'd go a step further and run it through a separate buried conduit in the same trench. However...
     
    You can use ethernet surge protectors on both ends of the cable, i.e. terminate at the wall outside the home with a surge protector, run the buried cable, and terminate in another surge protector in the garden before hooking up to your devices. However, I wouldn't trust any surge protector when it comes to a high probability of lightning strikes.
     
    If you have a lot of thunderstorms in your area, then consider @Donut417's advice about running fiber instead. Measure the distance you need and order cable in that length with compatible transceivers for both ends.

    If it doesnt support the 2200g, you will need to order AMD's bootkit to update the BIOS through USB. I'm not sure whether they ship with 2200g compatible BIOS yet, who knows when your mobo left the factory.
     
    You will need a DP to HDMI adapter for 2 monitors since the monitor you chose only supports DVI and HDMI but the mobo only has 1 DP and 1 HDMI. A passive one is good enough
     
    As @Sauron said, 2.5" SSDs are cheaper for the capacity. The advantage of NVME SSDs to a SATA SSD is its higher transfer rate, but their response time is similar. The latter is far more important than the former in an office system, that's why a SATA drive is better in this case.

    This one doesnt cost a little more for 240GB size, still relatively fast among cheaper SATA drives.

    Not if he doesn't get a display. I'm assuming no BIOS screen?

    If it were me, I'd slum it with the 7850 and buy everything else, then save and buy a better GPU later.

    I've changed from a 17" to a 13" in the last few months and whilst I have to zoom in to 130% on word to read size 12 text comfortability, I do not have to change any zoom settings in chrome.
