Hey
I want to build a computer for about 250 euro / $340. It's aimed for general use: surfing the internet, downloading emails, using word editing / office software etc. However, it should be powerful enough and scalable to last for a few years. I'm considering these:

This computer was my best shot with this budget. I'm looking to lower the price a little, as it's the shipping cost too. So I'm wondering which parts can be purchased used, without affecting their quality. I also want to hear if someone believes that something of the above is not a good choice for its price or if there's incompatibility between the mobo and the cpu as it's my first build
PS: Don't mind if the links shows an ended listing, it just shows the average price for that part
Thank you
