Planning a mini itx build for portability, will be moving places every couple weeks and also need an upgrade. Current budget is 1200$ but can stretch that a little, if u change parts don't worry if its a little over, the prices are different in my country it just doesn't appear in partpicker. And i will be buying GPU from a friend so that's why its cheap. Monitor-1080p 240hz. Pc will be for games like CS2, heavily modded Minecraft, GTA 5 and later 6, Sport games-2k, eafc... How did i do putting this list together?

This is a good build!   The AK620 is a bit overkill for the 7500f but its a CPU cooler you can keep if you are upgrading to a 9800X3D later for example.

I cool my own overclocked 9800X3D with the AK620 Digital without any problems.  There are cheaper coolers out there.

I checked the height of the RAM and it fits under the front fan of the AK620. RAM clearance is 43mm while the RAM is 40mm.


Rest looks good. Be aware that ASRock has had some issues with X3D CPU's burning but has not affected the 7500F.  Update the BIOS nontheless.

Thanks for the feedback! Might look for a cheaper CPU cooler and check the clearance, tbh i didn't even think of that being a problem but will take that into thought later.

This will also cool the 7500f and 9800X3D with ease 🙂  RAM clearance is 42mm with the front fan.

 

It will also fit in the Deepcool CH160 Mini ITX.  It supports coolers up to 172mm and the PA SE120 is 155mm.
