You'll need RAM too... didn't see that in the list.
I would also make sure that you get a motherboard that has a place for
at least 1 NVMe. Then I would recommend that you get at least one
NVMe. It doesn't have to be huge, but if you can put at least your OS
on the NVMe, it will make your whole machine feel 50 times faster than
if you keep using a 10 year old hard drive.... Trust me, it will be
worth every cent to get it.
I would also recommend getting an AMD machine right now. You can get a
whole lot more for your money right now with AMD.
BTW What's the price range you are looking at spending?
