Hi trying to help my friend build a computer for valorant and Minecraft they have gotten the ram and SSD so far but I was wondering if there are any improvement I can make to the build or make it cheaper Budget around 1200 cad For the video card I left it out of the budget since they are impossible to find right now and might just use integrated GPU for now

Thanks

Need a cooler , air will do like go for noctua or cooler master and you can get a cheaper motherboard and 2400mhz ram is low go for 3000 mhz ram

The 11400 includes a pretty decent cooler. For what he's doing a third party cooler seems like a waste of money, 

No, go for 3200MHZ.

get a GPU later on. You can't take advantage of 144hz with the iGOU.

i thought the stock cooler would be enough since it cant overclock anyways
