Yeah that should work

Build Components:

Are these Compatible:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core
MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16

1 TB Hard Drive 
Corsair 4000D Airflow ATX Mid Tower
Corsair CV 650 W 80+ Bronze

RTX 3070(If I can somehow get one)

 

Also:

While flashing the BIOS through flash button and usb in the above mentioned board, installation of CPU and Memory is not required, but what happens if the CPU and Memory is already installed, what happens when 1. the CPU is not compatible(here 3600)? 2. The CPU is not compatible but we let it be installed and do not remove it and use the flash button functionality, will the BIOS still be updated or is it necessary to remove the CPU and memory before USB based update of BIOS.

Euhm you don't need to update the bios here at all. You can totally update the bios normally with a cpu and ram in there.

 

However couple changes here as well some major faults.

 

No ssd that is a big problem as your system will be very slow to use at least get a 256gb crucial mx500 or wd blue drive

Psu is well bad. That is not going to work with a 3070. Get a b tier or better unit of AT LEAST 650w from the psu tier list.

3600mhz ram is advised if not a big price increase.

 

What is your budget?

cpu will be compatible out of the box.

I wouldn't use a corsair CV series with a rtx 3070. it just won't work. upgrade to at least the CX series, but ideally TXM, RM or RMX

Is 650 W not enough or is this about particular model i.e CV 650?

That it is bad. The psu is simply low quality and cannot power a 3070.

Do ssd first hdd later that is a much much better plan than the other way around.

It's the particular model being low end, meant to power office pcs and entry level gaming pcs. It can't handle the 3070. 650W of a good quality unit like a corsair rmx should be enough.

Yeah the cx models are generally decent. They are not the best but they won't compromise your components and are a good alternative if you are on a budget.

same quality, the cx750 has 100W extra in case you ever upgrade to a really big gpu, like a 3080.
