I am putting together a build for a simple office PC for a collegue. They wanted to spend £500 at PC world for a FX based PC with a HDD...

How does this look? All compatible and all I need? (Have win 10 elsewhere). Would you change anything? She will be using Excel quite a lot. But not enormous Excel files. Worth going up to Ryzen 2400G or not? Or indeed better to go with a R5 CPU and buy a cheapo GPU>?

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £325.60 (includes shipping: £11.70)

The mobo you have picked does not have the required display outputs for the CPU

And you might have to update the BIOS on the board before it will boot with APU

You should also pick faster memory (2666 minimum) to get best of Ryzen chips, 3000+ preferable
 
Looks much better - if its going be a windows system 120GB can disapear real quick - so maybe bigger SSD (extra £10)

Or if wanting to stay with Kingston:

Thanks. Thats a good deal. Ill get the 240GB (most everything will be stored on the server anyway.

You're missing a license for Windows.
