Yes the M.2 can be put behind the mobo.

 

Yes, the only mini-itx for ryzen that's a good fit is the asrock.

Asus & Msi didn't realize ryzen mini-itx mobo's.

I hadn't realise how small that case was. I've heard biostar's mini itx boards are good

biostar isn't that well known so don't wanna risk it. I wanted Asus mobo but none released sadly.

Seems like this is what I'd go with from the comments received.

One thing I'm a bit confused about still is :

 

IF AMD is not good with VR for my dad's work then I wouldn't get it.

Wait, VR or VMs? For VMs ryzen is just fine as far as I know.

 

The build you linked won't work, ryzen 5 has no integrated gpu so you won't have any video.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

You're better off buying a core i5 or i7 if you won't need to play games.

Im comfortable buying used GPU's from people but is it alright to buy a used CPU?

Do you need to re-format it or something before putting it in your brand new mobo?

No, cpus don't save their state. Its working parameters are set by the motherboard, so it makes no difference whether it's been used before or not. It's safe to buy them used.

probably I have different opinion than others about buying used gpu. I always prefer new even if less powerful only because a new gpu comes with warranty, most used gpu wont & never know how the user handled it before. for your case, you need a gpu to last you longer. as you stated 200$ for gpu. you can get 1050 or 1050 ti new in that range.
