Advice on current build

Build Help

Hi all,

Just wanted some advice for a first time PC build. Main use cases would be typical pc use, office work, data analysis with R software and gaming - nothing too crazy. Don't have a GPU yet because I wanna be flexible with the given market and will look for something that can run games with ok performance (maybe 10. Once prices go down I'll probably look at upgrading for better performance which is why I went with a bigger case.

A friend helped me build with a budget between 1000-1500 USD. I'm in Australia so not sure how much prices will differ. I'm happy spending more if warranted but upper limit would be 1500-2000 at this stage (not really counting GPU since they mess up budgets). Thanks in advance!
