Hi guys! I'm in the process of deciding which parts to pick for my first self-built (gaming) PC. I have chosen some components but I do not have experience with building a PC so I used pcpartpicker for compatibility checker. I know some aspects aren't covered by the website so it would be great if someone could point out some potential compatibility issues, obvious bottlenecks etc. I also couldn't decide on the case and an HDD and I need help on picking these two. The case should be available in Europe.

Thanks a lot!

(Helpful list of cases available at the store in my country where I will buy the rest of the components -- https://www.pcgarage.ro/carcase/ )

you got yourself a super low end power supply for a super high end rig. Try a more affordable SSD like a Sabrent Rocket and use the money saved for a Corsair TXM. Since this is a gaming PC the cheaper SSD won't make any performance difference.

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.

Thank you. Any tips for the case and HDD @Fasauceome?

The new Lian Li lancool ii looks promising, and for HDD it's hard to go wrong with wd blue
