First Pc Build help request

ShadowXD · January 27, 2024

Budget (including currency): 3500AUD approx 2500USD give or take AUD$250

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Engineering Major, Mathmatics Major, Computer Science Major, Valorant, a bit of minecraft, CS2. Multitasking. Basically i will be using it for University homework, some gaming, and just other general uses like watching youtube, twitch, netflix etc..

Other details:
I would like suggestions if i can make this cheaper without affecting the cooling or performance, i would prefer 165hz plus, 2560 x 1440 resolution, i do multitask a lot so 32 gb ram is needed. if possible is there any way to also improve this laptop within my budget (especially cooling Australia is hot in summer )
Could someone please help me check the compatability, i checked and it should work, but this is my first build so im not so sure.
I also need keyboard suggestions, im into tactile but not too loud, and 120% qwerty standard layout. not the one with weird L shaped enter button.
All sugestions are greatly appreaciated
Future plans for this pc:
I would definitely be upgrading it. For now only plan for one monitor. i already have a like 5 year old phillips monitor so ill be using that maayyybee? But i do with to upgrade internals in the future.
Thank you

It all works together ^^ .. A few changes puts you into a 2TB SSD and a case with better airflow that's much easier to work with, especially when it comes to builds with an AIO.
