I really recommend an SSD too, you can get 250GB for $70. It is really worth it, stuff boots a lot faster and starts faster.

You need an SSD. Believe me, you do. At lest a 250GB one- they aren't that expensive these days.

144hz freesync monitor. Sadly not a 27" one. Youd need another 100$ for that. 

 

This build will only fit in the budget if you are willing to run without a case for a while

300 series doesnt allways support 2000 series CPUs due to having older BIOSes. 400 series mobos are the only way to enshure compatibility. 

 

All mobos can support all the CPUs, you just need the correct BIOS version

Youd need to have a wifi card aswell. You can pick them up rather cheap. You might find someone selling them used. Though id recommend getting a wired solution lf sort. Either using a powerline or similar

Look into a Powerline. Thats what im currently using. Not the greatest solution and doesnt work for everyone but when it works it is on par with a wired connection
