Is my PC compatible?

The Juno will fit in the case, but I suggest a different CPU cooler for you.

 

You MIGHT need to go through a bios flashing. Think AMD is still doing the bootstrap kits to get you on your feet, and you get to keep the CPU cooler they ship with them which ought to out perform the Juno you selected.

 

Case includes 3 fans and those should move sufficient air through the case even if you go with the Juno.

Yes.

Some tips though

Buy 1 stick of 8gb over 4x2gb

Dont buy another cooler, the 2200g comes with a good one

Get windows from Kinguin for around $30

 

If your budget is this low and its for gaming, I would either recommend a used PC, or a console.

Go with the 2x4GB gives you better performance at the same ram clock even if it costs you slightly more.

And at the current moment the 2x4GB wins on both cost and performance according to PCPP.

 

Also for $10.00 more this 2x4 kit stomps. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/p4cMnQ/patriot-viper-4-8gb-2-x-4gb-ddr4-3000-memory-pv48g300c6k

It will limit upgrade paths over a really small performance boost.

I got the pcie but if I add an ssd it may go over 30 euro over budget.

It can actually make a big difference. The link below shows the R5 2400G APU with both single and dual channel ram.

It's as compatible as the MSI motherboard. 

 

Like the MSI motherboard there is no guaranty that a BIOS update will not be necessary. While unlikely, https://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-articles/Pages/2Gen-Ryzen-AM4-System-Bootup.aspx has solutions.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

I avoided a motherboard because I don't know if AMD ships to my country, I live in Malta. If you can tell me if they ship that would be great!

You could buy from Amazon.co.uk for example as Malta is part of the EU so there wouldn't be any Customs charges etc. 

 

Also for Windows 10 you can download it from Microsoft and use it for free. Only downside is you can't personalise the desktop and you eventually get a watermark in the bottom right corner. You can still buy a license key later on if you wanted to.

You should be able to purchase all the components locally. Do an internet search for "computer store malta". When I did the search turned up numerous stores/merchants that sell computer components, including the ones being discussed here.

Wow thanks!

I will do searches on store but sometimes it is hard because in Malta traffic is a big problem, but if it is cheaper I will do it of course.
