Budget (including currency): £450 -£500

Country: UK

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: media, streaming, light video server for cameras

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): 

A rough idea - https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/myZbYd

Does it need wifi capability?

 

Quite pricey NVME for the use-case and also cheaper alternatives.

it may one day need a gpu, and it will be one less thing for them to upgrade when eventually like all pc's  it becomes outdated for what they need it for

yes it wifi would be nice. 

 

(SSD) it was on sale 

 

would you recommend a third party cooler (its not going to be used much for single core loads often

it doesn't need it, you can start with the stock cooler and if temps are too high you could get a third party cooler

doesn't need it very much, the stock cooler can keep 6 core AM4 CPU in acceptable temps even if all cores are used
