So you already have a full HD monitor, or? It's hard to get both an OS, a monitor and peripherals at this price range after all. This is the best I can come up with:

Yes I will need a monitor, but I will probably be able to go a bit over budget to compensate for a better overall build. Will have to do some research! Thanks for the build, looks decent!
