CD/DVD Drive - LG GSA-H55NBAL 20x DVDRW - £16.37

Monitor will be a DELL or SAMSUNG 22" £200-£300
The computer will be running multiple apps(up to 6), but no games. Would you know if any of the above components have any compatibility issues.
A similar spec computer from DELL is £649.01 and this includes the monitor, so I'm torn between the easy option of buying a "reliable, tested" free shipping PC from DELL and doing no work or building my own which may have some faults and costing a bit more.
Any advice?
