So I am making a new build, bought this used msi gtx 1060 ( https://www.amazon.com/MSI-GAMING-GTX-1060-6G/dp/B01IEKYD5U/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=gtx+1060+msi&qid=1582613976&s=electronics&sr=1-1 ) off a friend and putting it into a budget build. Currently I am looking at

 

-AMD ryzen 3 1200, 4 cores, 4 threads 3.1ghz (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0741DN383/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A2D6O8U4XOTC9L&psc=1), 

 

Gigabyte GA-A320M-S2H (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079NYQQJJ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1) ,

 

and Compucase HEC HX310 Mid Tower.

 

I am wondering

-if the CPU will bottleneck, and if it will, are there any better budget cpus around the same price I could use?

-Will the gpu fit in the case?

-Will the gpu fit on the motherboard?

 

Any help is appreciated :D.

Yes but not by much (there is always a bottelneck somewhere).

Yes.

Yes it's standards.

 

The 1200 is a nice entry CPU, if you can get a 1600 AF (the AF is important here) it will be better or the 2600 (120$).

 

The motherboard is really poor though, I'd suggest something better with heatsink on it like the MSI B450 PRO VDH MAX (80$).

Does my motherboard does not have room for a cpu cooler?
