Solid system with an upgrade path
Activate XMP to get better render speeds. If you feel like spending a tad more, a 2600X will have two more core for about 60$ for fast speed and more cores.

Thanks!

do not buy those parts. That's a really terrible PC for that budget. A Ryzen 3200G is a woefully weak CPU that'll be outperformed by damn near anything and will severely limit your editing performance.

 

That may also be the worst B450 motherboard of all time. Seriously, don't get that.

 

Get this instead.

Agreed. On top of this the OP should get a 500GB for a little more then what he's going to pay for 250GB.

You can get 7200 rpm drive it is the same price

RPM =/= performance, and definitely doesn't mean reliability. I'd take the WD Blue over the Seagate anyday.
