Hi, I am going to build a PC and my budget is around 1000$*. I am fairly new and have tried to improve my build with some tips from people on here. Oh and I know my CPU is not the most optimal but I already have it so I have to go with it and I think it is O K. 

Any tips or thoughts are appreciated!

Thanks!

While I'm sure it'd be fine, I'd personally look for a better PSU since you have 20 dollars to play with, there is a PSU tier list for quality in the PSU section of this forum, let me get the link. 

 

Yours faithfully

get a asrock b450m pro 4 or move to an ATX case and get the MSI B450-A pro.

Then switch to a RM550X or RX650x
