As above, basically, want to know your budget, monitor and what the pc will be used for (editing, gaming etc. with some specific software & game examples).

Picking up on the above - there are a few things which look like they could be optimised / improved (e.g. you've got an old model motherboard in), but without knowing your budget and use case it's hard to say.
