No. Just quick glancing at the list, the CPU will not fit in the motherboard. Use PCPartPicker to do initial compatibility checks. 

 

There's a lot of things in this system that don't make too much sense, so I would probably just start over. Please fill out the post guidelines outlined here:

 

1. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
2. GPU: Zotac RTX 3060 Twin Edge OC 12GB (Dimensions: [L: 231.9mm, W: 141.3mm, H: 41.5mm])
3. Motherboard: MSI B650M Gaming Plus WiFi (DDR5)
4. PSU: Cooler Master MWE 750 V2 750 Watt 80 Plus Bronze
5. Memory (RAM): Corsair Vengeance DDR5 16GB 5600MHz (1x16GB)
6. Storage: Crucial MX500 500GB SSD
7. CPU Cooler: Deepcool Gammaxx AG300 (Height: 155mm)
8. Case: Circle Elegantor X5 ARGB (White) (GPU Length Max 335mm, CPU Cooler Height Max 160mm, Vacant Fan Vents: 3x 120mm)
9. Extra Case Fans: Ant eSports Superflow 120Kit ARGB triple pack (120mm)
10. UPS: CyberPower 1200VA 720W / CyberPower 1500VA 900W

 

are all my components compatible with each other? is the ups good enough? any known issues?

is my cpu fine or should i use a better one cuz my cpu is just as expensive as my mobo.
first-timer kindly help.
purpose: low budget gaming pc

5600X CPU needs a B550 board not B650 (that's for Ryzen 7000)

It needs DDR4 also, and don't get 1x16GB RAM anyway (get 2 sticks)

Agree, 5600x is socket AM4 so you need a motherboard with AM4 chipset like B550 or X570 , B550 is perfectly fine. 

 

This also means you need DDR4, and for 5600x you should go with 3600 Mhz sticks, but 3200 Mhz sticks would also work well.  Get ram in pairs, dual channel does make a significant improvement. 

 

A520 chipset boards is also an option but usually not worth it, losing too many features for too little money difference.


For storage you could probably do a bit better. 

 

The whole system won't consume more than around 300-350 watts when gaming, and won't make a lot of heat...  so you could save some money by not getting that kit of 3  ant eSports fans if that money makes a lot of difference. 

 

I always recommend people if the budget is super tight, leave out parts you can buy and install later, like fans. You could have the computer with the side open for a few weeks until you have more money for some fans, but you'll regret not buying a better SSD or a better video card.

 

Also if you don't care much about looks you should look around and see if you can buy a used computer case from local listings.

thanks a lot. its been a major help.
i dont care much about looks so i'll probably go for a used case in that case.

You should use pcpartpicker website to make your build it auto checks compatibilty

If you pick this CPU, you need a Socket AM5 motherboard, and also you need DDR5 memory.

i can fit it into my budget(~1100$)
if i replace the cpu in my build above with this cpu, will it be compatible with it?

do i have to change any other components?
(and i'll add another 16gb ram stick to make it 16 + 16 for dual channel acceleration)

judging by the fact that ant esports is available i assume somewhere in asia? specifically somewhere around southeast asia

 

for 1100$ you can definitely do alot better, here in indo thatd get you a 5700x + 3090 + 32gb ddr4 based build with a few used parts, a more realistic expectation for the gpu unless you also have 600-700$ 3090s used would be used 6800xt/6900xt

 

afaik most SEA countries if not all have online local eshops, here in indo thatd be tokopedia, bukalapak, and a few others, so makes buying used alot easier and safer atleast thats been my experience buying exclusively used for the most part as i play around with 10+ year old hardware

I'm in India rn (Kashmir). it's difficult to find used parts here so i've kinda run outta options. I'll redo the whole build but there's one thing i want your suggestion about.
if i keep all the parts that i posted up there same except for the cpu (i'll use ryzen 5 7600x) + another 16GB ram stick + a better ssd, will that be a good build?
I'll rewrite the parts here:

1. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
2. GPU: Zotac RTX 3060 Twin Edge OC 12GB (Dimensions: [L: 231.9mm, W: 141.3mm, H: 41.5mm])
3. Motherboard: MSI B650M Gaming Plus WiFi (DDR5)
4. PSU: Cooler Master MWE 750 V2 750 Watt 80 Plus Bronze
5. Memory (RAM): Corsair Vengeance DDR5 16GB 5600MHz (2x16GB)
6. Storage: Crucial MX500 1TB SSD
7. CPU Cooler: Deepcool Gammaxx AG300 (Height: 155mm)
8. Case: Circle Elegantor X5 ARGB (White) (GPU Length Max 335mm, CPU Cooler Height Max 160mm, Vacant Fan Vents: 3x 120mm)
9. Extra Case Fans: Ant eSports Superflow 120Kit ARGB triple pack (120mm)
10. UPS: CyberPower 1200VA 720W / CyberPower 1500VA 900W

does it still have issues?
this is my very first modern pc build and i'm really unsure about basically everything.
Thank You!

for 1100$ 3060 is really weak even if india has overpriced gpus which seems to be the case since there have been quite a few of your countrymen that have asked for some build help on this site and iirc a 4070 over there is the equivalent of 700-800$

 

maybe look at a 3070 or 6700xt for the gpu, might even be able to find a used gpu atleast

 

psu is pretty meh but its fine if its <60$

 

ram is also pretty meh, id look at teamgroup 5600c46 kits since those are hynix a die, you will have to manually tune to get decent performance but there are plenty of 6000 a die profiles online you can plug and play which will be alot better than that crap corsair kit thats probably gonna be based off some samsung garbage that wont run >7000 and these teamgroup a die sticks are capable of 10000+ so you wont ever have to swap rams unless 32gb is not enough, if unavailable klevv 5600c46 is basically the same thing

 

get an nvme ssd instead of a sata ssd

 

ag300 is pretty meh aswell since its a 92mm 3 heatpipe, look for a cheap 4-7 heatpipe 120/140mm (dual) tower like the assassin spirit, assassin king, burst assassin, peerless assassin/phantom spirit/frost tower, ag/ak400/500/620, se 214/224 xt, etc.

 

case is horrible and has no airflow, look for one with a mesh or perforated front

 

also the 7600 non x may be cheaper than the 7600x, might even be able to find a 7500f thats even cheaper than the 7600 non x

 

otherwise looks ok

thank you. that was a major help. no one warned me about those rams and the case etc. ig i'll start from square one with a new build while keeping in mind what all of you have suggested. thanks a lot. I'm truly grateful
