Hi, 

I am trying to build a computer, please assist me to get best/cost effective PC. 

My purpose to build the PC is to study Windows server on it. I will install windows server on the PC or will use any virtual machine. 

Please assist me to build PC. 
So far, I have decided to buy following parts and please assist me to buy rest of them. 

Motherboard: ASUS STRIX ROG B350-F GAMING Motherboard. 

Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 1400 

Ram: 8GB DDR4 CORSAIR (2400) 

HD: SSD SAMSUNG 960 M.2 (250GB) 

Display card: Please suggest me to buy a graphic card, I have no idea about it. I just need a basic card, which could help me with my study things and may be to watch movies in good 1080 Blue Ray print. Honestly, that is the maximum what I do. I will be connecting by 43" of Haier TV via HDMI cable. 

Cabinet: As I am using AMD AM4 B350 ATX gaming motherboard, which is ATX. So, please suggest me cost effective Cabinet. 

SMPS: I guess the total power consumption for this PC will not be more than 500W, I am not sure but that is what I have calculated on cooler master power consumption site. Kindly suggest me a best SMPS/power supply. 

Cooler: There is one fan with Ryzen 5 1400, I am not sure if I would require to put some kinda cooler in PC or not. Please suggest me the right thing for best performance. 

UPS: I have seen a few UPS online, please suggest if I should by a 1.5 KVA, 1KVA, 800VA or 600VA UPS.

Oh okay, a GTX 1060 would be just fine. 

 

Graphics cards are being really overpriced, especially AMD cards, because of cryptocurrency mining. So please don't buy a graphics card that is way over the MSRP.

 

I'd actually try to get a used GPU if you can, save a few hundred bucks. I got a used GTX 970 for $100 USD recently on Craigslist.

I would recommend a GTX 1060 or a 1050 ti depending on your budget. I don't think you need a ups unless you have a specific purpose for it.

Also, do you speak english or are you using translator?

I would also recommend a 650 watt power supply such as the evga supernova, so should you upgrade in the future, it will be sufficient. 

For a cooler I would recommend the hyper 212 Evo, which is one of the best budget coolers.

I assume you mean a case by cabinet, I would recommend the nzxt s340, it's a great budget option.
