Sadly, "building" a PC nowadays is not very fun.
Install CPU, RAM, m.2 SSD... and that's all if you use iGPU. Just almost bare motherboard, there is even no cables to the disk drive!
GPU? Isn't needed if you aren't driving multiple monitors and/or gaming. Even if, it's just one card, install it.. and that's all.
BD/DVD? In 2021? Really?
Soundcard? If you really care than you just pipe it to your $kkkk receiver through SPDIF/HDMI/whatever, otherwise it is just fine.
OS? Just install it. Win10/11 would work out of the box, most Linux distros would work too.
The only "fun" there is hunting specs through the atrocious naming schemes (to be sure you aren't buying some 5-10 y/o part with the same index re-used on a modern piece) and hunting down the specialty things, like a SFF[0] mini-ITX cases and parts what would fit in it.
