tldr; temp build till next year, not replacing everything, thoughts on my rationale/parts picks? Build below.

I threw this together as a "will tide me over till Zen4/let me get the rest out of my GPU until the next release" build since my current build is getting rather long in the tooth (4c/4t i5 6500, rx 470 4gb (fallback/older parts, better ones fried randomly when PSU died)) that I can either sell to a friend who's looking to get into PCs or sell on hardwareswap in '22 when AM5/DDR5/Alder Lake come out.

I chose the 10400f because of the price/performance and I didn't really need anything stronger since it's paired with my old rx470. I intend on blowing $1500 or so on my next full build once the next hardware cycle has begun and the GPU market (hopefully) normalizes a bit due to Ethereum switching to POS, so this is really only intended as a partial upgrade. I have a set of 2x8gb cl16 2400mhz Crucial Ballistix that I could probably OC a bit to 2800 or 2933 (common values according to other owners of the same kit) but I'm just not sure how much memory speed matters for Intel (I remember that it's super important for AMD now but iirc its not nearly as important for intel, can someone confirm/correct me please?)

I'm also holding on to the Corsair SFF 450 Gold from my current system - since the 10400f is also rated at 65w and I'm keeping the same graphics card, I should be in the clear. I'm also re-using the same case, so ITX is a necessity (new cooler needed too since my current only has a lga1151/AM3 bracket).

I threw in an Inland 1tb NVME drive because I'm still rockin a small 850EVO and 1tb WD Blue HDD, so anything NVME is an upgrade. I only chose Inland because I live near a Microcenter and can just go grab one when I grab the mobo/cpu too, but I'm open to replacement suggestions in that price range.

Am I missing anything, not considering anything, are there better options, etc? It's been 5 years since I've really done this and would appreciate some feedback/thoughts.
