Hello,

 

I've been looking to update my 5 y/o computer for more than a year now, but I've finally pulled the trigger on the case so now I must do it :). 
I'll be going from my behemoth Cooler Master StormTrooper case to the NCase M1 V6.1. ATX to ITX.

I want a quiet and cool system. I also wanted to go AIO because of the looks and have always wanted to try it. I know it is overkill for a 3600 and a Noctua C14S might be cheaper and the better choice though.

I wanted to go with a 5700XT but they are almost none 2 slots cards (in order to install 2 fans below), so I'll go with the 2060S from EVGA.

Here is the list of the parts below. Do you have any comments or other before I start buying the parts? Thanks!

For a 3600, not really. Unless you need PCIe 4.0/PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive support. It'd be a better choice for a 3900X or 3950X though, due to X570 boards usually having better VRMs.

I think this one is Zen 2 ready and it's a pretty good motherboard too :)
