I built this a few months ago. Its my first ever build and id say it turned out really well.

Specs are as follow :
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/d7QzXy
Certain choices I made may seem odd but il describe them here.
-RTX 3050 : I went with this card simply to be future proof. I want to keep this computer for a good 5-8 years without needing a GPU upgrade. so I spent the extra money and got an RTX card. I know the 3050 isn't as great but its all I need. (and at the time the RTX 3060 was another 200$ more)
-3600mhz Memory : this one was a bit of a mistake. I originally had 4000mhz ram but when I saw the Trident Z ram I fell inlove with it. so I may or may not have gotten taken by the RGB... I know Ryzen prefers higher mhz but I have yet to notice any major issues with it.
-The Space at the top of my Case : Simply put, I plan on getting a AIO at some point within the near future. just been making more money to get it. so far Ive had no issues with it overheating tho.
-CPU Cooler : its on the wrong way. yes I know. I don't plan to fix it until I get my AIO. it doesn't affect anything.

So far my future upgrade plans are as follows :
- AIO
- 32GB's of ram
- Hookup the Front Fan's RGB to my motherboard (The instructions are so dumb)

ALSO SORRY FOR BAD PHOTO QUALITY, its dark under my desk 😕

Thanks for reading through all this. if you have any feedback lmk 🙂

should give you a little more performance while still staying within your budget

Hello, Thanks for this great build. Ive taken some time and adjusted some things, Ive gone and removed the SSD as im buying a 3TB HDD from my friend for a lower price. ive also swap the ram out for a tiny bit cheaper. as I dont really care for the look to much.
 
If you want to see all ive done.
