refrain from creating new threads for previous conversation, just reply with a question in the original thread

I would go with the CX 550 or GP600 as the PSU instead of the EVGA BQ. They're overall better units and wil help in future GPUs/components. I would also go with a B560M HDV if you don't need the onboard wifi the board has. 

 
EDIT: Cooler is unnecessary, 11th gen comes with an all black cooler (performance is similar to previous) but will be more than enough for an 11500Intel's gone black with its new CPU cooler, can't go back to silver |  TweakTown

noticed you don't have a graphics card (probably why you're going with intel for integrated graphics) but if you wanted to save a few bucks you could use an 11400 instead of the 11500, since it goes for around $180 and probably doesn't have a huge difference in performance.  haven't used intel before but with an 11400 without overclocking you would probably be okay with the stock cooler instead of buying one but you definitely want a second opinion on that

the 11500 has the better iGPU. UHD 730 vs UHD 750.

geometry is hard
b550 > x570

why the PSU and MOBO change? The original CX450 I recommended is much better quality than the EVGA BQ....
Also the B560M steel legend is much better quality.
Also drop the cooler, the stock cooler is better.

the 11400 has worse integrated graphics than the 11500. uhd 730 on the 11400 vs uhd 750 on the 11500. so probably a decent performance change graphically anyway

you don't close the thread per say. you can mark a comment as a best answer, signifying you no longer need help. if a thread is getting to be a problem of some type, a mod can lock or delete a thread, but you can't directly do that yourself

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.
