Ive done this before.

 

Normally you need a dremel to cut io bracet, somthing to mount the motherboard. Id personally put a aio in the bottom and cut a spot for a fan if you want good tempts, otherwise the cpu will run hot.

 

Try to get long cables, So you can open the case fully.

 

You probalby want something to solder the power button and power led.

So how do I solder the power button and led. I have seen a guide but it’s a bit confusing.

Would a ASRock B450M Steel Legend AM4 motherboard be good and a Ryzen 3 3800x be good

so you don't have the parts yet? do you need help with a build? if so, what is your budget and what are you planning to use the pc for?

I can help with a list of parts, but have no idea whether they fit in that case or how. are you 100% set on it?

Easy way is to just solder directly on the button on the board.
