Hi all, I have not been setting up any new pc for so many years now a colleague is asking me to help, so quite nervous and need help from the pro here:

Here's what I shortlisted:

Asrock B550M-ITX/AC WIFI at $233
AMD Ryzen 3 3100 at $155
Inwin casing B550(TFX psu 300W) at $89

RAM and SSD resused. Licensed WIN10 reuse.

Anything wrong with my selection? Office and casual youtube watching only, no gaming.

My current worry is the Inwin tfx power supply at 300W. Not sure can it power the mbo/cpu without any issue or not.

TIA

If I understand it correctly B550 motherboard does not support any Ryzen CPU with iGPU that is currently available in the market. For example Ryzen 3400g or 3200g. Ryzen 4000g was announced and can be used on B550 family but they won't be available for consumer so soon. If using with Ryzen 3400/3200g then need to drop the motherboard down to B450 family. A bit silly to buy X570 series to use those two CPU.

Since you are willing to use an iGPU then most prob
Thanks for pointing out, will need to switch to one with integrated GPU then, any recommended budget ryzen with gpu?

Why are you looking at a PC build for this use case? Its far better to have a laptop hooked up to an external monitor if you need a bigger screen. You also have the option to use it without the external screen when need.
