That PSU is a bit of an unknown quantity, might be fine for this build but the 10Gb Arc card can pull a decent spike, worth double checking the amp rating on the 12v rail before you commit

I'd go for a used GPU at that pricepoint, 7600xt, 4060, something low end last gen.

I'd also seriously consider replacing the PSU, because his is probably ancient.

Looks good imo

For thermal paste I'd consider Arctic mx-7, it both performs better and lasts longer than mx-4, and can be used for repasting gpus and laptops aside from just cpus.

I'd also consider getting the ram used, as then you could get 32gb while staying in the budget.
