I would get an APU, but that would be about the same!

Which would you suggest, I figured the Pentium since this pc will mostly be used for quickbooks and office.

The pentium technically is an APU as it has integrated graphics, same for i3s, i5s, and i7s.

The integrated graphics on it will be more than enough for office work.

 

 

 

To the OP, looks great!

You could save a bit by going with a normal non-OC pentium, as the overclocking isn't needed for this type of work.

What is the name of that Pentium?
