Just double checking all these parts are compatible. Making it for someone else who wants it to do some basic things on such as browse the web watch movies on and that but he wants it to be fast still also never closes anything either so a few random things will be open in the background.

Should probably just get a laptop with an SSD?

Get an R3 2200G minimum though, no one should have to live with A10s anymore

Get an ASrock Pro4 B350 or B450 motherboard minimum

and 3000mhz RAM probably isn't much more expensive.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

You want the ASrock Pro 4 specifically, as it has VRM heatsinks so that the board lasts a long time

And 3000mhz shouldn't be much more expensive but is very important for performance

 

and I don't think that case has any airflow, find one with a mesh front at least.

You want a B350 or B450 motherboard with VRM heatsinks, not an A chipset, those are typically the lowest end and cheapest.
