Doing my first gaming pc build, can some one check it, I know there is no graphics card the ryzen 5 has integrated and I cannot afford a card so if you see anything or a cheaper way to do something please tell me

Also I have keyboard, mouse, and monitor.

Also it says an error with every motherboard I use so can someone also check that?

Here's the build link: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VChqsZ

The issue with the new ryzen g chips is that boards will require BIOS updates to run them.
This is impossible to do without an older ryzen cpu to flash them with.

Consider a ryzen 1200 & a gt 1030 for that reason

Its around the same price , will just work out of the box , & gaming performance is going to be some 25% better.

Error is that the motherboard requires a BIOS update before putting in the new chip, so you need a Ryzen 1 chip first to perform the update on the motherboard before putting in the new chip.

Unless you have a spare Ryzen 1 chip lying around to do the update, I would not go with this for now. What is your budget? Perhaps stick with the Ryzen 3 1200 for now, and pick up a cheap card for a bit.

Or get this, should tide over a for a bit unless you have a decent budget:
