well as indicated by PCP. the PSU isnt compatible. 

 

grab a bequiet pure power 10/11 cm 500 watt instead.

id also grab an aircooler instead of an AIO

 

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/Y27CmG/be-quiet-cpu-cooler-bk020

this one should fit nicely while offering excellent cooling capability. 

 

other than that it seems fine. 

 

edit: and yeah the GPU: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/ZcXnTW/palit-geforce-rtx-2060-6-gb-stormx-video-card-ne62060018j9-161f

here is something that fits.

Many Thanks,

So you have issues in this build. 

 

Have you already bought everything or not yet?

 

i would also

suggest waiting till Monday until AMd’s keynote at computex.

 

prices of ryzen 2000 will drop once they release /launch ryzen 3000

ITX build? I may have a suggestion.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I forgot to mention that I know that it says that they are not compatible but they are, the psu comes with an atx adapter and I have seen builds in this case with aio's

Because for some reason, tormenting oneself to fit all the parts into the smallest possible case is apparently a thing

 

Instead of just going for a normal case that is easier to work on and even cheaper as it uses standard-sized parts....
