Do you care about the asthetics? Is a nice looking mobo and case necesary?

 

[Damien_X]

or are you fine with a microatx case with an acrilic side panel  (or a metal one)

[Damien_X]

nvm i found a good case, hope ur ok with mini atx cases

[Damien_X]

Also do you need wifi? And what about overclocking? What continent are you in?(for amd's cpu lender program for updating bioses)

The quirks of this build are the micro atx case, although it is very nice and good looking, and the motherboard that has no wifi and bluetooth, and 2 slots of memory only. You could save SOME money if you dont want to overclock by getting a motherboard with an a320 chipset.

 

You DONT need to update the bios because of the MAX motherboard, so thats nice. The two ram slots are a bummer, but 16gb is enough for now

 

(some additional fans for the front panel would be a good idea)

Thanks for taking the time to reply! I am from greece. Also looks are essential because my misses will kill me if it's a bad looking case. I dont care about wifi because I plan on using ethernet. Mobo is a plus if it is visible. Thanks again for taking the time to reply!

It looks nice in my opinion, and the motherboard is fine looking. Not ugly by any means, so you will be fine
