Is this fine?

because the 5000G series CPUs are so new, I highly recommend a motherboard with BIOS flashback to update the firmware, there is a very small chance that you will purchase a motherboard with the appropriate version. Especially for B450

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

I suggest getting a B550 board so the CPU has a bigger chance working out of the box. Also, the PSU is fine for a integrated GPU system, but probably not if you want to get an RTX 3000 card or something like that.

RTX  30 seriess card? Not happening for me in 20 years probably

I see. What GPU do you plan to get? A used one? Still I recommend a 80 Plus Gold PSU from a good brand. Check the PSU tier list on this forum. Most 80 Plus Bronze PSUs are pretty average for the quality.

Many people complained about the motherboard so is this better?

That seems like a good board. Basically any Asus Prime B550 board is fine and has all the connectors you usually need.

Doesn't seem to support BIOS Flashback (at least I don't see the option). In this case you run the risk of not being able to update the BIOS without a CPU installed. Since the 5000G series is so new, it may very well not be compatible with the 5600G out of the box.

No that board is terrible. You can get an MSI B450-A PRO for that amount.

Or if you want matx then the B450M Mortar MAX.

Both have bios flashback so no cpu needed to update it.

It is definitely not a good board. The VRM is terrible.

Oh right. It's the K version with the worse VRM. The good versions are the one ending with A, Plus and Pro versions. This applies to B450 and B550 models, also the X chipsets of Prime are pretty decent.

The warnings on pcpartpicker are not always correct. Both boards are compatible with that cpu. Also both boards have HDMI on the rear I/O. The Mortar also has DisplayPort.

As for the first one not working with the case that is because you swapped to a microATX. The one in your original list was ATX. If you are going with the Deepcool case then the B450M Mortar MAX would be the board to go with.

Did you look at the link I posted ? 

 

Here is a screenshot of the B450M Mortar that clearly shows the R5 5600G. So yes it is compatible. You can also put the Mortar in an ATX case if you want.
