Looking to build a computer for basic home use. I don't play any video games, moderate multitasking with music and surfing the net. Enjoy watching movies on my computer but not primary use so I opted out of a video card. Will connect my current wireless router directly through lan port. About $420, parts from amazon, going to order today I want to stay in this price area. Used PCPartPicker for part brain storming

Let me know what you think. Any issues/suggestions, anything extra i should get (absolute necessary)?

CPU Intel Pentium G2020 2.9GHz Dual-Core
Motherboard ASRock B75M R2.0 Micro ATX LGA1155
Memory Kingston HyperX Blu 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR3-1333
Storage Seagate Barracuda 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM
Case Raidmax ATX-809B (Black) ATX Mid Tower
Power Supply Corsair 430W ATX12V
Optical Drive Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer
Operating System Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (OEM) (64-bit)

It has Intel HD 4000 graphics so it'll probably suit well for what you need it for.

Subtract parts as you see fit.
