Need help with components

Hey,

Do you recommend to change anything for my first pc build?

There are cheaper RX 580 models, and the the Armour isn't so great it's worth paying more for (actually it's a cheaper model).

I don't personally like that case, but it's all personal preference, and with your lower-power parts the cooling isn't gonna be a deal breaker.


Otherwise seems fine. Pretty good.

Same build, except I added an SSD.

SSDs are 100% necessary for a modern boot drive, imo. Booting off a fast HDD vs a slow SSD is like a 20+ second difference. You can get cheaper SSDs (Kingston 120GB), I just threw in my usual pick.

 

The rest of the system should be pretty good.

I'm gonna get the msi rx 580 for really cheap

I believe the ARMOR OC coolers can be hit and miss, so I changed the rx 580 model to a powercolor red devil, which is always a reliable model. I also saved some money on the motherboard (And gpu as well) to make some way for an ssd and a better psu:

Yeah, but the OP's mobo has much better power delivery. it was a good choice for overlocking and potential upgrades. 

I would save money on the GPU, case before compromising on the board. 

It's cheaper and easier to get a long-term motherboard and wait a bit for more storage than get a cheap board and have to rebuild and waste a component when they decide to overclock more (once they get a better cooler) and/or upgrade the CPU
