I plan to build a PC that can run Java Edition sometime in the future. I have 0 computer knowledge and have struggled over this myself, so it'd be a big help if anybody could recommend parts that I would need for this task. I have a budget of 400-500 (Canadian) dollars, I don't mind it being bare minimum and FPS is a issue I will deal with on my own. Thank you.

Just like Energy Master said: pcpartpicker

i do recommend to research a bit more, so you could get a better pc for a better price.

Does that come with a WiFi adaption? I don’t see it on the motherboard or a separate one, I also don’t see a sound card unless the motherboard has it integrated (do computers have integrated sound?)

Nope.. this motherboard doesn't have WIFI..

and about the sound. Almost all motherboards come with on board audio/sound. Its just that sound cards can produce better audio.

Can you give an example on why a sound card is needed for better audio.

Well.. it is not needed.. Most motherboards already have good on board sound cards and audio, but if you do music/sound production, then you might want a sound card. It takes some load off the CPU, and does some other things.. I personally don't know a lot about sound cards, but i do know that they can improve audio and can do some other things..

sorry if some things didn't make sense or if my grammar is bad... i am really tired and I don't feel so good.. sorry

Most do, however, i'd check your motherboard before you buy it.
