Trying to build a pink case for the wife that's relatively future proof. No gaming, just web browsing, music (not production), YouTube, and ms office stuff.

The problem is that I've only built two machines and this is the first time I'm doing a color scheme. Im also stuck between DDR4 and 5. I don't think she needs the power but if I don't get the 5 now I feel like I'd have to replace the mobo if she needs to upgrade.

If theres any suggestions yall have to make it more compatible, more pink, cheaper, or more powerful without spending much more, please roast me on it (don't change the case though she's set on that).

If it's not for gaming or video editing/compression, the igpu will be plenty. That's what those are for.

If any 3d gaming is going to happen, you can add the gpu in, but that's an easy drop-in upgrade anyway. You can just stick it in there at a later time if you want.
