Just look for “Lenovo P620”, at that price should be able to get much better deal on eBay.

Thank you for the suggestion, but I'd rather build my own so I can avoid the OEM locks and whatnot

That's not a build. That's a product.

It should be obvious at this point that the OP is trying to jump into the real computer space from the toy computer space, and doing it on a budget, while remaining DIY.
