Tell me if my build is garbage

ASRock B365M Pro 4
https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/B365%20Pro4/index.asp#Specification
Intel i3-9100F 4-core 3.6ghz (comes with cooler/heatsink)
G Skill Ripjaws V Series 8, 2x4gb ddr4-2666
Gigabyte GT1030 2gb/GV-N1030OC-2GI
Kingston A400 120gb 2.5" ssd
Seagate Barracuda Compute, 3.5" 2tb
EVGA 400 N1
Cooler Master Q500L

 

Sourced for about $600-650 moose bucks. I could use more RAM but there's another dual channel slot I can fill in later. Can I make it cheaper without sacrificing quality? I know a few things but I am noob. I am unsure about psu compatibility or how many fans I can stick on it. I know it won't game hard I just want something useful. This would be my first build. Thanks in advance

Pretty bad. But, it will work for everyday stuff. for just normal life, 8 gb is fine, and I can't find anything wrong with the build except for the price. $600CAD for that shit? Hell nah

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.

Have you bought this yet? If not don't. This is basically a really really expensive office pc.

Yes that would be much appreciated! I'm fine with amd, I just want a good computer for the price. I think I understand how to fit some things together I just don't know the market well enough.
