A Build for Mom - Looking for critiques / suggestions

[Surfie]

Just get an external usb one. Asus do a slim line one for about $30. Where are you looking to order from?

https://m.newegg.com/products/N82E16827135256it's 35 here, but you can get cheaper at newegg...

As for the white board in a black case, it'll look nice. The contrast is what will attract the eye.

What do you think of this

G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB ) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2666 Desktop Memory Model F4-2666C15D-16GVR
https://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-Ripjaws-288-Pin-Desktop-F4-2666C15D-16GVR/dp/B013J7LQYO

It's $15 more, but meh, the case dropped $10 anyway.

It's listed on MSI's site as compatible.
It's red too - some how that's important to me now...

@Surfie.
She actually has an external I just found. It works too. So going to go with that.
Just placed the order. I'm getting everything off amazon - Prime shipping, should all be here Friday. She's using my aunt's busted laptop at the moment.
I found the prices on amazon generally cheaper this time, save for a mail-in rebate on NewEgg or two.
