Building my first computer (mITX)

Budget (including currency): Irrelevant

Country: Norway

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: General gaming

 

Hi, so I'm in need of an upgrade and thought I would build my computer myself. I have never done this before, so I thought I would make a post here to get some help.

 

Alright, so these are the parts I've been looking at https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BVHGp2

 

I know there are some size compatibility warnings about the case and the cooler. But I'm pretty sure that wont be an issue as long as I dont have the tempered glass case.

Ive already purchased the RAM and 4x additional Noctua NF-S12A that I hope I can use.   

 

My question is if this build will do, or if I will have any unexpected compatibility issues. And also if there are any improvements I can/should do before I purchase.

Also very interested in suggestions on how to place my fans for best effect. I have no idea how to do that.

Thank you for the suggestions. I have another question. Do I need any additional cables, or controls? Or can I purchase the parts, and I will be good to go? As mentioned in the original post; i do have 4 extra fans I would like to use. This is the mobo I am going for: (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089FWWN62?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1)

Please be aware that you might not be able to fit 4 fans into the nr200. All of our suggested cards here are nearing 3 slots. You might not fit 25mm thick fans at the bottom. You can only fit those fans with a gpu that is not thicker than 2 slots

 

Also I think that itx motherboard only has 2 fan headers. You might need another 2 4pin fan splitters to split the pwm signal 2 for four fans.
