New build to teach my son how to build and use computers

[SpaceTek]

Budget (including currency): 1000-1500 

Country: AUD

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Web games and some school work. Minecraft and Roblox

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Not using any existing parts other than KB and Mouse.

 

I want to build a small pc (Micro ATX) to not take up much room on his desk. I would also like to go for bang for buck with the focus on quiet PC so looking at an AIO cooler. As he currently mostly plays Minecraft the focus on single core performance but also would like to not be to restricted if he decides to run anything a bit more taxing. Want to use GPU nit integrated graphics and m.2 nvme drives to keep the build clean.

do you not want a dedicated gpu then? 

If so then check this build (with monitor): https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/cJMNd9

Without: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/ZVwQrD 

If you do want a dgpu with monitor: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/8Xktzf

If you want a dgpu without monitor included in price: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/cn6zQ6

Also heres a vid on how to build your pc step by step

Went with 12th gen intel, and a RTX 3060 gpu. 1TB m.2 nvme ssd's are getting pretty cheap too apparently. May have to pick up some more storage for my own build soon too.
