Linux or Windows?

As for your questions:

• this CPU will be fine for years for absolutely everything except AAA gaming.
• On Linux, 16Gbs of RAM is fine. As other said, prefer 2x8Gb instead of a single 16Gb.
• 250Gb of storage is very cramped by modern standards. I would go at least 512Gb. Buy your SSD from elsewhere, it's much cheaper.
• maybe grab an extra USB-C in case you need to plug an external drive while charging your PC.
