There will be an image below showing the parts that I have chosen and what the issues/warnings mean (my dad wants a PC for a bunch of office work and his budget is around 2k, not for gaming, and wants it future proofed for a couple of years)

 

The screenshot is from PC part picker

the errors are saying "your SSD might be bottlenecked because if you use this one slot you will share bandwidth with a SATA (just use a different M.2 slot)" and they are saying they can't detect if the cooler won't fit over the RAM

not much to worry about unless there is only one M.2 slot and you want a SATA

SSDs are faster than SATAs right? 

 

And thank you  ALOT for the help!!!

SATA is a type of SSD. M.2 is also SSD. Different form and different speeds.

M.2 SSDs are faster than SATA SSDs, m.2 and SATA are both interfaces for SSDs.

M.2 is the physical form factor. There are tons of SATA M.2 drives. There are also NVME M.2 drives.
