Need Help Choosing Parts
I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. I will be using this computer for general purposes and some CAD work. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=f0e72b9f-7946-4558-b83c-bf744286dcc2

Greetings,
Assuming you want to stay in the same price range, I don't have a lot to add. There's nothing wrong with your build. If there's a budget you have in mind, we can try to help you min/max your build around that budget. -
Thank You, This is my first build and I dont know much about computers. I was trying to stay around 700.
-
I would drop the the cooler and thermal paste. Put that extra money into an i3-9100F and use the stock cooler.
-
I took your advice and I think I might go for it, Any advice or parts I'm missing?
-
No, that's pretty much it. You're not missing any pats.
