Is there anything wrong with my build?

metric_ · May 19

Budget (including currency): I don't really want to spend any more money but if there's a significant improvement I might consider it

Country: uk

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: I plan on using it for satisfactory Minecraft dune awakening VR game development and just general use

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):

I don't see anything inherently wrong with it and it should all work together. Even the PSU is B-tier and should be plenty good.

But I am sure someone will show up and give you an entirely different parts list that are supposedly a better bang for the buck. Wait a day or two to get some recommendations.

Well not entirely but for the same amount of money there are a few ways to improve

Better PSU, better ssd,faster ram and a "better" case

My main worry is whether or not the SSD is okay I've seen so many and I don't really understand the difference

How fast, durable and how reliable they are is the main difference

Speed aint gonna affect you too much in gaming(after a certain point) but reliability and durability are self explainatory

Dont buy the thermal paste, your cooler will come with a good quality one, and get 6000CL30 ram, also the phantom spirit is about £4 more and an upgrade
