Hey folks, can you help me with a PC build, please? It will be used for office work, programming, maths (GeoGebra, SageMath) and maybe some light indie games.
I've just started my coding journey, so I don't think I'll touch any GPU programming any time soon. All I need is enough RAM and CPU power to handle VSCode, Firefox, and my maths software open at the same time. Also, I'd like to play with some virtual machines, so I think 32GB RAM is the minimum.
I'll also need a WiFi since I cannot use a cable. A small case would be nice, but it's not necessary.

And last but not least, can you recommend me a good monitor (~ 24") which won't cause a much of eye strain after hours of looking at it?
Thank you in advance!
 
Are you using GeoGebra locally or is it web based? SageMath will use multicores but I see that web based GeoGebra uses JS and is more dependent on single core performance whilst running it local will use multicores?

Also, will the £1000 include the monitor?
I run GeoGebra locally.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the £1000 is just for the box.
