[GTALUG] PC build recommendation

Hey everyone,

I'm assembling a computer and I'm looking for some feedback.

The computer I'm building I'll use for development, run some VMs, edit 
video time-to-time.  I also already have a 1Gb hard drive which I plan 
to use for VMs.

One of the big requirements is to be small size, lots of memory 
(eventually upgrade to 32GB) and have a somewhat beefy CPU (Thus Ryzen 
2400G).

I've chosen Asrock AB350 mini ITX because it's small and it's got dual HDMI.

I'm thinking maybe I can reduce some specs to save a few bucks.

Thanks,

Alex.
