The Ryzen 1200 does NOT have graphics output. You can't use it without a dedicated graphics card, which will cost a lot more money. You need the 2200G. There's only $1 difference in price between the two.

With the memory, it's the frequency that is important with the 2200G, so don't get 2133MHz memory. There's only $5 difference between the one you selected and the 3000MHz memory. The reason is dedicated graphics cards have memory built in to the card they use that is very fast, however when you're using the CPU/APU for the display it relies on the systems RAM in the motherboard. The faster RAM you have, the better performance you will have. I strongly recommend getting RAM with higher frequency. I understand you are building on a budget, but trust me that it's worth the extra few dollars.

The Thermaltake "Smart" series isn't considered to be very good and it may not be as reliable as other PSUs. I would recommend you keep shopping to see if you can find something better. Remember to check the PSU Tier list I linked to earlier to see how PSUs rate.

So this is what I ended up with: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JohnCarlHenry/saved/WqDbjX

I know the power supply is still not one of the best you could get in the market but it's the best I could do before things get even more out of hand( my estimated days that I'd need to be able to buy this is 400+ days with a roughly a dollar a day). Let me know if there's still something that should be improved(except for the power supply maybe).
