I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

I would've gone for a B450 Mortar Max for the motherboard and an RM550x or TX550M for the PSU, but there was no pricing available. If you can find those in stock, they'd be better picks.

Coming in under the budget, you get the case you wanted as well as a much more powerful GPU and plenty of upgrade capacity:

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 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

^ this but with a better SSD like a Sabrent Rocket, ADATA SX8200 Pro or HP EX950 would be the best for $1100.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Would I be able to use a CPU cooler like the corsair H60?

Would this PC work even though it says incompatible?

The cooler is a waste of money. The stock cooler is more than fine for the 3600.

 

I prefer the B450M Gaming Plus for an extra $10.

 

The Crucial P1 is faster on paper than the WD Blue.

 

The Mech is a bit meh. I would pay the extra for the Gigabyte card.

 

You don't need a 750W psu.
