I know I have been posting a lot, this will be me first build, I just want to be confident in what I buy from what you guys recommend and have experienced, so to all of you helping, thank you. 

 

Okay I am planning to buy these parts very soon.

 

I am not looking to buy from Newegg due to their security breach they recently had.

From what others have said I have upgraded my case, psu, and case fans. The only thing is I know the SAD is small, I am just looking to have a fast boot up for Windows, that’s really it, maybe I will get an SSD in the future for games and prpgrams. People have recommended an AOC monitor for around the same price as the monitor I have with the speakers, but I want an IPS panel.

 

I am looking to play RGPs and IPS should be nice for that, and how good could monitor speakers be...

Monitor speakers are garbage better take headphones or speakers. Why don't you get 24inch rather than 21.5 inch.

And I cannot find an IPS panel for the same price with freesync. A couple inches doesn’t seem like a big problem...

Well if you need a bigger looking screen. If you don't see for yourself any difference, then don't ofcourse. Other than that, the PC looks like a good build. 
I don't quite understand what are your questions actually

Looks solid! I would personally choose a bx500 ssd instead but otherwise it looks good!

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
