This build is going to be my project, but I still have some questions. Is the BIOS compatible with this motherboard? I'm new and a BIOS can be really confusing. Will the power supply fit in the case? PCpartpicker said it should, but does it actually work? If you could share a BIOS setup guide, that would be perfect! Thanks!

You're all good to go. I don't need to worry about the bios since they each have their own quirks. Generally, the interface is organized with an info first tab, advanced settings second, health and fan controls in a third, boot order in the fourth, and finally saving with a password in the fifth. Even after BIOS updates, the layout remains mostly consistent.

It's fine, but if you're developing a game system you might need a video card. A 1050ti or rx480 would be suitable options.
