This is pretty bad. Let me help you.

I'd definitely recommend adding an SSD to this build.

I'm assuming he already has the SSHD. If not - buying pure SSD is FAR better. SSHDs are notoriously unreliable.

You don’t need to buy extra thermal paste the boxed cooler has it already preapplied

Can you recommend any good hard drives, if the sshd is bad I'm planning on using a 500GB nvme SSD and a 2TB HDD

Do you know any good motherboards that come with built in WIFI and Bluetooth. I don't want to mess around with PCI cards or whatever you need to do if your motherboard doesn't have them built in.

I've literally linked you one in that build. The B450i has built in Wi-Fi

 

As for the SSD - get a Crucial P1 1TB over 2TB spinning rust.

Also this error comes up: Warning!Some AMD B450 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Matisse CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions.

Have you tried looking at the MSI website?

These days most boards come pre-updated. If you're extremely worried, wait 2 weeks and get a B550 board. But you could just drop the store an email and ask them to update the BIOS for peace of mind. 99% of stores do that for free.
